The seventh Pakistan-Tajikistan Joint Commission meeting culminated in a major breakthrough with signing of two landmark Memorandums of Understanding (MoUs) and protocols.

According to details, the first MoU forges a historic partnership between the province of Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa (K-P) and Tajikistan's Khatlon province, paving the way for enhanced cooperation and mutual development.

The second MoU seals a thrilling collaboration between Pakistan and Tajikistan Football Federations, poised to elevate the sports landscape in both nations.

A business-to-business (B2B) forum has been arranged for December 13 for the businessmen of both countries in order to strengthen the B2B ties.

Speaking on the occasion, Pakistan's Energy Minister Sardar Awais Leghari emphasized the historical, longstanding, close and cordial relations between the two countries, noting that Pakistan was one of the first countries to recognize Tajikistan's independence in 1991, and emphasized their shared religious, historical and cultural bonds.

Leghari reiterated Pakistan's commitment to enhancing bilateral cooperation, particularly in the areas of trade, energy, agriculture, education, and industry, where both countries have significant comparative advantages.
