Pakistan’s foreign policy should be calibrated to promote peace in the region, cultivate friendly relations with all nations and enhance exports, Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani said on Friday.
Mr. Gilani made the remarks during a meeting with Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi.
He also said that his economic team has framed investor-friendly policies and there is now a “great opportunity for foreign investors to invest in Pakistan“.
Foreign businessmen are investing in energy and infrastructure projects but there is an urgent need to bring foreign investment in other sectors of economy, he said.
Mr. Qureshi apprised the Prime Minister about his meeting with Turkish President Abdullah G at the sidelines of a regional summit in Istanbul.
He said that Turkey will support Pakistan’s candidacy for a non-permanent seat in the UN Security Council.
He also briefed Mr. Gilani about the details of his meetings during the summit of the Conference on Interaction and Confidence-Building Measures in Asia.
