Referring to the Islamabad Memorandum of Understanding between Iran and the US, Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian says that the country “must strive to compel the enemy to remain committed to what it has signed”.

In a post on X, he said, “The memorandum [of understanding] that was signed is the result of the collective wisdom of Shura Council’s members, and all members are in sympathy with it.”

“I believe this memorandum will be the centre of gravity of our foreign relations in the future. We must strive to compel the enemy to remain committed to what it has signed.”

“The security of the country, the region, and our allies will be enhanced by this memorandum,” President Pezeshkian stated.
