Deputy Prime Minister Ishaq Dar to Lead Pakistan Delegation at Iranian President’s Oath Taking Ceremony
Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar will represent Pakistan at the inauguration of Iran’s President-elect, Dr. Masoud Pezeshkian, showcasing the commitment to enhance bilateral cooperation between the two nations. Originally, Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif was set to attend the ceremony, but had to cancel due to health reasons.
The endorsement of Pezeshkian as the new Iranian President by Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei marks a significant step in the country’s leadership transition. The president-elect will be officially sworn in before the parliament in a grand ceremony, reaffirming his commitment to uphold the constitution and fulfill his duties as the head of state.
With over 2,500 attendees expected, including foreign delegations and prominent officials, the swearing-in ceremony signifies a momentous occasion for Iran. Pezeshkian’s election as the president following a tragic incident earlier in the year highlights the nation’s resilience and dedication to democratic processes.
