Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday welcomed the peace agreement reached between the United States and Iran to end the prolonged conflict in West Asia. He expressed hope that the implementation of the deal would help restore peace and stability across the region.
In a statement, PM Modi said India supports all efforts aimed at reducing tensions and promoting dialogue. He also emphasized the importance of ensuring freedom of navigation, which is vital for global trade and energy supplies.
The agreement follows the end of a 107-day conflict between the United States and Iran. The war had disrupted energy markets and raised concerns about regional security. U.S. President Donald Trump announced that both countries had finalized a deal to bring the hostilities to an end.
According to Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, the formal peace agreement is expected to be signed in Switzerland on June 19. The development has been welcomed by several countries, as it is seen as a significant step toward restoring stability in West Asia and easing concerns over global energy supplies.
India has expressed optimism that discussions on the remaining issues will lead to a lasting and sustainable resolution.
