Hell Freezes Over: US and Iran Set a Date to Sign a Peace Deal

Original version ·

If you had 'historic peace treaty between Washington and Tehran' on your geopolitical bingo card for this year, go grab your prize.

The geopolitical landscape just took a sharp turn into the twilight zone. The US and Iran are actually signing a peace deal on June 19 in Geneva. And how did we find out? Not through a joint White House press conference, but via a tweet from the Foreign Minister of Pakistan, Ishaq Dar, who just spilled the beans on X.

The two long-time arch-nemeses have actually agreed to put pen to paper, thanks to a massive group effort by mediators like Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Egypt, Turkey, and the UN. Just a few days ago, the Iranians were aggressively denying claims by Donald Trump that they were ready to sign anything on a Sunday. But apparently, the Swiss air works wonders when you give it a couple of weeks.

When Washington and Tehran resolve decades of proxy wars and nuclear standoffs through a Pakistani minister's Twitter account, the old manual of diplomacy can officially be thrown in the trash.

    Wait, Pakistan's FM leaked this on Twitter? What a time to be alive. Diplomats are just shitposting now.

    honestly if they actually pull this off it's massive. but i bet the hardliners on both sides are already planning how to ruin it.
    +6 solidA balanced take that manages to be pessimistic without being entirely useless
