Dar briefed his Chinese counterpart on the first round of high-level Iran-US talks held in Bürgenstock, which were mediated by Pakistan and Qatar. He said the dialogue resulted in the establishment of a high-level oversight committee under the Islamabad Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to supervise the mediation process.
The deputy prime minister said three specialised working groups had also been constituted to address the nuclear issue, sanctions, and monitoring and dispute resolution. He expressed confidence that these mechanisms would facilitate a comprehensive agreement between the parties within the next 60 days.
Dar also thanked China for its consistent support for the peace process, highlighting President Xi Jinping’s four-point peace proposal and the joint five-point Pakistan-China peace initiative as important contributions to regional stability.
Foreign Minister Wang Yi congratulated Pakistan’s leadership on the successful mediation efforts and the signing of the Islamabad MoU. He praised Pakistan’s sustained diplomatic engagement, active mediation, and continuous outreach aimed at promoting peace and stability.
The Chinese foreign minister reaffirmed Beijing’s unwavering support for Pakistan’s mediation role, stressing that disputes should be resolved through peaceful dialogue in accordance with the principles of the United Nations Charter.
The two foreign ministers concluded the conversation by reaffirming the shared resolve of Pakistan and China to work closely toward a negotiated settlement between the parties, with the objective of ending hostilities, promoting lasting peace, and advancing shared development and common prosperity.
