[Pakistan Calls on US and Iran to Cease Military Conflict and Resume Technical-Level Talks] On the 16th local time, the Pakistani Foreign Ministry held a press conference, calling on the United States and Iran to cease military conflict and resume technical-level talks as soon as possible. Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Andrabi stated at a regular press conference that day that, with the continued escalation of hostilities over the past week, Pakistan once again called on all parties to exercise maximum restraint and avoid any actions that further undermine regional peace and stability. He emphasized that Pakistan has always believed that there is no other option than continued engagement, dialogue, and diplomacy to achieve the common goal of lasting peace, stability, and development. He also pointed out that all conflicts and disputes ultimately need to be resolved through dialogue, and the Islamabad Memorandum of Understanding signed by the United States and Iran last month remains a lasting framework for promoting peace, mutual respect, and common prosperity.
