This year’s 23rd March National Day will be observed with simplicity at all Pakistan’s Missions abroad, limited to the traditional flag-hoisting ceremony. In the light of Prime Minister’s announced austerity measures, and as a mark of solidarity with the countries and peoples of the Middle East and the wider region affected by the ongoing conflict and the tragic loss of innocent lives, National Day receptions will not be held this year. Pakistan hopes that dialogue and diplomacy will prevail, and that peace, stability and prosperity will soon return to the entire region and beyond.

The Governments of Pakistan and the United States have formally launched a strategic economic initiative, including collaboration with the U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) regarding the operation, maintenance, renovation, and redevelopment of the Roosevelt Hotel in New York. This engagement was negotiated and stewarded by U.S. Special Envoy Steve Witkoff under the leadership of President Donald J. Trump. To advance this partnership, both governments have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) formalizing their cooperation. The MoU was executed by GSA Administrator Edward C. Forst on behalf of the United States and Federal Minister for Finance and Revenue Senator Muhammad Aurangzeb on behalf of Pakistan, and witnessed by Prime Minister Mian Shehbaz Sharif and United States Special Envoy Steve Witkoff. It establishes a structured, time-bound framework for joint evaluation of the technical, commercial, and economic parameters of cooperation, reflecting a shared commitment to transparent, disciplined, and mutually beneficial progress. Given the Roosevelt Hotel’s prime Manhattan location and the complexity of New York zoning and municipal processes, institutional coordination aims to reduce execution risk, enhance regulatory clarity, and maximize transaction value. Such facilitative frameworks are consistent with international practice in cross-border real estate and infrastructure projects. The objective remains to secure maximum value for this property in alignment with the government’s privatization strategy while strengthening Pakistan-United States economic ties.

Ramadan Mubarak, @Chicago. Wishing all those who celebrate peace, blessings, and reflection during this sacred month. Thank you to Chicago's Muslim community for being a light in our city.

Deeply saddened to learn of the passing of Reverend Jesse Jackson. A towering voice of conscience, he devoted life to the struggle for civil rights, equality and human dignity. His legacy of courage, compassion and service will continue to inspire and guide generations. Extend heartfelt condolences to his family, friends, and all those who mourn his loss. May he rest in peace.
