A visit by Pakistan's prime minister to Saudi Arabia will last three days

 

Islamabad -Prime Minister Imran Khan left today (Saturday) for a three-day visit to Saudi Arabia to attend the launching ceremony of the "Middle East Green Initiative Summit" held in Riyadh. A high-level delegation including Foreign Minister Shah Mahmoud Qureshi and other federal cabinet members also accompanied the Prime Minister during the visit. At the MGI Summit, Imran Khan will share his views on the challenges facing developing countries due to climate change. He will also highlight Pakistan’s experience in launching nature-based solutions to address environmental challenges. The MGI Summit was held at the initiative of Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman bin Abdulaziz. This event is the first in the Middle East. Recall that in March this year, the crown prince launched the "Green Saudi Arabia" and "Green Middle East" initiatives to protect nature and the earth.

Prime Minister Imran Khan welcomed these two initiatives and was willing to share the experience and lessons of Pakistan's "Clean and Green Pakistan" and the Prime Minister's "Tsunami of Ten Billion Trees". The Prime Minister will conduct bilateral interactions with Saudi leaders, paying special attention to promoting economic and trade relations, creating more opportunities for Pakistani labor, and the welfare of Pakistani nationals in the Kingdom. The two sides will also exchange views on regional and international issues of common concern. During the visit, the Prime Minister will also participate in activities to promote investment in Pakistan, and interact with major Saudi investors, businessmen and the Pakistani community. Pakistan and Saudi Arabia have a long historical fraternal relationship, which is deeply rooted in common belief, common history and mutual support. With more than 2 million Pakistanis, Saudi Arabia has contributed to the progress and prosperity of the two countries.

Prime Minister Imran's visit will further promote the positive momentum of cooperation between Pakistan and Pakistan.
