Chaudhry Inam Zafar and Hafiz Usman Abbasi of Awaam Pakistan have lauded the role of Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, Field Marshal Syed Asim Munir and Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar after the decision to postpone U.S. and Israeli military action against Iran for two weeks. They described the move as an example of effective ceasefire diplomacy that benefits both security and the economy.
The leaders said the immediate effects of the announcement are visible across markets, pointing to a clear decline in oil prices and an upward trend in stock indices. According to their statement, these market responses show that temporary tensions were managed in a way that reassured investors and traders.
Chaudhry Inam Zafar emphasised that the decision demonstrates Pakistan’s responsibility on the global stage and underlined that the stance of Army Chief General Asim Munir has been instrumental in maintaining peace and economic stability. He said the outcome will have a positive impact on everyday life for Pakistani families through reduced inflationary pressure and improved market confidence.
Hafiz Usman Abbasi noted that economists have observed a boost in investor confidence following the ceasefire diplomacy move, with improvements reported in Pakistan’s oil and stock markets at the international level. He said these shifts signal a restoration of stability that can support economic recovery.
The Awaam Pakistan leaders concluded that aligning national security decisions with economic interests is essential, and they expressed hope that similar measured steps will continue to strengthen Pakistan’s international relations and domestic economy. They reiterated appreciation for the coordinated efforts of political and military leadership in navigating a sensitive period.
