Pakistan-Afghanistan relations

Letter October 02, 2014
Our president also reaffirmed Pakistan’s support for a peaceful, democratic transition in Afghanistan

LAHORE: Relations between Pakistan and Afghanistan have seen many ups and downs over the years. It is commendable, therefore, that during President Mamnoon Hussain’s visit to Kabul for the landmark occasion of the swearing-in ceremony of the new Afghan president, both countries agreed to substantively engage at multiple levels to advance the shared goals of achieving peace, economic development and regional cooperation.

Our president also reaffirmed Pakistan’s support for a peaceful, democratic transition in Afghanistan, which will hopefully contribute towards further strengthening of ties between the two countries.
