"Today a two-week ceasefire between the United States and Iran was announced, with Pakistan and other partners thanked for facilitating the agreement. The signatories stress that the goal is a swift, lasting end to the conflict through diplomacy and call for rapid progress toward a substantive negotiated settlement to protect civilians in Iran and ensure regional security, while also preventing a severe global energy crisis. They express support for the diplomatic effort and say they are in close contact with the United States and other partners. They urge all sides to implement the ceasefire, including in Lebanon, and to guarantee freedom of navigation in the Strait of Hormuz, with openness to other partners."
