Pakistan, India can gain from mutually beneficial trade: Shehbaz Sharif
He had earlier expressed a desire to create peaceful relationships in the region in a letter to Indian PM Modi
Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif has said that Islamabad is looking to forge partnerships for its geo-economics strategy, especially within the region, which apparently includes New Delhi.
He was responding to a question about trade with India in an interview with Turkish media outlet Anadolu Agency ahead of his three-day visit to the country, Dawn reported. However, Sharif arrived in Turkey on Tuesday.
Shehbaz said that as part of its shift from geo-strategy to geo-economics, Pakistan is looking to forge partnerships, especially within the region, based on connectivity.
“Pakistan and India have a lot to gain from mutually beneficial trade,” he said as quoted by Dawn. “We are cognizant of the economic dividends that can be accrued from a healthy trade activity with India.”
It is to be noted that after coming to power in Pakistan in early April, Shehbaz Sharif wrote a letter to Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi expressing his desire for peaceful ties with India and the resolution of all the outstanding issues.
This comes in the wake of PM Modi’s congratulatory wishes to the then newly-elected Pakistani counterpart. Sharif, in his reply, thanked PM Modi for congratulating him and said that his country desires peaceful and cooperative ties with India, reported ARY News.
