Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif has welcomed the historic peace agreement signed between the Republic of Azerbaijan and the Republic of Armenia at the White House Summit under the auspices of U.S. President Donald J. Trump.

In a post of his X handle, he said this landmark development marks the dawn of a new era of peace, stability, and cooperation in the South Caucasus, a region that has endured decades of conflict and human suffering.

The Prime Minister congratulated President Ilham Aliyev and the people of Azerbaijan on this historic agreement, that reflects wisdom, foresight and sagacity in charting a course for a peaceful future for their region.

Shehbaz Sharif said Pakistan has always stood by the brotherly nation of Azerbaijan and we stand with them at this proud moment of their history.

The Prime Minister also appreciated the facilitation role of the United States, under President Donald Trump, in bringing the two sides together and securing an agreement that opens new avenues for trade, connectivity, and regional integration. He hoped this spirit of dialogue will serve as an example for other regions facing protracted conflicts.
