Pakistan, and Iran to enhance trade, cooperation in energy, and transport
Last year, Ambassador of Iran to Pakistan Reza Amiri Moghadam paid a courtesy call to Prime Minister Muhammad Shehbaz Sharif to discuss matters of mutual concern.
He underscored that Pakistan attached great importance to Iran and the two countries enjoyed historic and brotherly relations.
The prime minister fondly recalled his meeting with the Iranian President when they jointly inaugurated a border market and an electricity transmission line in May 2023. The two leaders had also met on the sidelines of the SCO Summit in Samarkand in 2022.
