NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte described on Wednesday the United States’ move to prevent the Iranian nuclear threat and “undermine” Tehran’s missile capabilities as enhancing security for all.
Rutte said in a press statement: “We welcome the agreement that President Trump made with Iran.”
Regarding the war between Ukraine and Russia, the NATO Secretary General added: “We have given priority to supporting Ukraine, which has proven its ability to stop the Russian war machine and change the course of the battle.”
The United States and Iran are preparing to launch a round of technical negotiations aimed at establishing implementation and monitoring mechanisms for the agreement.
Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif announced late Sunday night that the United States and Iran had reached a “peace agreement” that would immediately end all military operations in the Middle East, including in Lebanon, with a signing ceremony to be held in Geneva on June 19.
