Desk note: Monexus is publishing this reconstruction treating the Pakistani and Qatari joint statement, as distributed via Iranian state-aligned English-language channels, as the primary textual record of the 22 June announcement. The absence of a contemporaneous State Department briefing or major Western-wire lead is treated as a fact about the news cycle, not as a basis for dispute or endorsement. The investigation desk will update this thread once a US read-out and third-party government reactions appear on the public record.
