Pakistan to Host US-Iran Peace Deal Signing Ceremony in Geneva: PM

Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif announced Monday that Pakistan will host the official signing ceremony of a historic peace agreement between the United States and Iran, scheduled for Friday, June 19, in Geneva, Switzerland.

The landmark deal brings an immediate and permanent end to military operations across all fronts, including Lebanon, following more than three months of conflict in West Asia. Sharif credited Pakistan’s diplomatic leadership and intensive mediation efforts for facilitating the breakthrough.

“Pakistan will host the signing ceremony,” Sharif stated, describing the agreement as a major achievement for regional and global peace. Both sides are expected to finalize technical details in the coming days ahead of the Geneva event.

Key provisions of the accord reportedly include the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz to international shipping, sanctions relief measures, and commitments to de-escalate tensions in multiple theaters. The development has been welcomed internationally, with praise for Pakistan’s role as a key mediator.

This high-profile hosting in neutral Geneva underscores Pakistan’s growing stature in international diplomacy and its contribution to stabilizing global energy markets and reducing regional instability.
