US President Donald Trump has expressed his willingness to visit Pakistan if a peace deal with Iran is reached. He made the comments after announcing a breakthrough in talks with Tehran, which includes the opening of the Strait of Hormuz to commercial vessels.
Trump stated that he would consider visiting Pakistan if a deal is signed in Islamabad, praising the country's leaders as 'great' and 'fantastic'. The US President also claimed that a naval blockade of the Strait of Hormuz would remain in place until the transaction with Iran is complete.
The breakthrough in talks with Iran has led to a significant drop in energy prices, with the cost of a barrel of Brent crude falling below $90. US stock market indices also rallied in response to the news, with the Dow Jones Industrial Average rising by 2%.
