Pakistan, Kuwait vow to deepen cooperation in trade, energy
The two prime ministers agreed to work together on prosperity, regional stability and sustainable development, with business ties a priority.
Pakistan and Kuwait reaffirmed on Wednesday their commitment to closer cooperation in trade, investment, energy, development and people-to-people exchanges, the state broadcaster Radio Pakistan reported.
Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif met his Kuwaiti counterpart, Ahmad Al-Abdullah Al-Ahmad Al-Sabah, in Antalya, Türkiye, on the sidelines of the 31st UN Climate Change Conference, known as COP31.
The two leaders discussed the long-standing fraternal relations between their countries.
They also exchanged views on regional and international developments, including the challenges of peace and security in the region.
The leaders covered the consequences of climate change and the importance of international cooperation for sustainable development.
Both sides welcomed the recent ratification of a defence cooperation agreement, and the leaders expressed hope that it would further promote bilateral cooperation.
The meeting stressed the shared commitment of the two countries to deepen bilateral ties, particularly business ties.
Sharif and Al-Sabah agreed to work together for mutual prosperity, regional stability and sustainable development.
Pakistan and Kuwait have maintained diplomatic relations for decades, and Kuwait hosts a large community of Pakistani workers, which gives economic ties between the two countries a direct human dimension.
COP31 is being hosted by Türkiye, and the UN conference brings together governments to discuss how to cut emissions and respond to the effects of climate change.
