Pakistan would help Malaysia compensate the loss it suffered due to Indian sanctions on palm oil trade, says the prime minister Imran Khan.
Addressing a joint presser along with his Malaysian counterpart Mahathir Mohamad, Imran Khan thanked the Malaysian PM for raising voice against the Indian actions in the occupied Kashmir as well as the controversial citizenship law.
“A radical and extremist government has taken over India and has put the people of Kashmir in a prison. The Indian occupying forces have picked the Kashmiri leadership and locked up teenagers and put them in prison,” PM Imran said.
On the subject of his meeting with his Malaysian counterpart, PM Imran said the two countries will continue to work on strengthening their relationship. “We feel there are tremendous trading and investment opportunities between Malaysia and Pakistan.”
The Malaysian prime minister who spoke earlier said that the two countries will continue to work on enhancing ties between the two countries.
The two sides agreed for regular discussions to strengthen the trade and investment relations by removing barriers in key areas. Both the sides also expressed commitment to build stronger ties in the areas of defense, law enforcement, tourism and education.
The joint presser between the prime ministers followed talks between the two leader in Putrajaya. Both the sides signed a number of important agreements and Memorandum of understanding (MoUs).
Foreign Minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi, Minister for Planning Asad Umar, Adviser on Commerce Abdul Razzak Dawood and Foreign Secretary Sohail Mahmood are accompanying the prime minister.
