Federal Parliamentary Secretary for Information and Broadcasting, Barrister Danyal Chaudhry, met with three senior US Congressmen at the US Embassy to discuss Pakistan’s trade potential, the recent pause in tariffs by President Trump and investment opportunities in key sectors. Barrister Danyal highlighted the tariff suspension as a chance to strengthen bilateral trade, stating, “This opens doors to position Pakistan as a competitive partner through investments in mining, tech, and renewable energy.” The talks emphasized Pakistan’s reforms to attract foreign investment via transparent governance. The U.S. delegation acknowledged Pakistan’s mineral resources and their role in diversifying global supply chains. Both sides agreed to advance technical collaboration, security cooperation, and sustainable development frameworks. Plans for joint working groups to streamline sectoral partnerships were also finalized. Meanwhile, the delegation of visiting US Congress members described their recent trip to Pakistan as highly successful and productive, expressing optimism for stronger Pakistan-US relations in the future. During their visit, the American lawmakers held meetings with senior political and military leadership of Pakistan, which they said would contribute to further strengthening bilateral ties. Congressman Jack Bergman highlighted the strategic importance of the Pakistan-US relationship, stating, “The significance of our partnership is undeniable and will remain relevant in the years to come.” He underscored that the positive impact of enhanced cooperation would not be limited to Pakistan and the United States (US) but would also extend to other developing regions around the world. “We are working in specific sectors and promoting partnerships. One such critical area is mineral development,” Bergman said, adding that this collaboration would lay the foundation for robust industries that could benefit not only Pakistan but the global economy. He further noted that new mining technologies and innovative products are essential for future industrial growth, and emphasized shared values between the two countries. “Our relationship is vital because both nations believe in the principles of freedom,” he remarked. Congressman Thomas Richard Suozzi began his remarks with a warm “Assalamualaikum” and thanked the Pakistani people for their hospitality. “The visit has been remarkable. We are grateful for the warm welcome extended to us,” he said. Suozzi called for building bilateral relations on strong foundations, acknowledging the role of the Pakistani diaspora in the US. “We see Pakistani immigrants as ambassadors who have excelled on American soil,” he added. He praised Pakistanis as hardworking, educated, and family-oriented individuals, and stressed the importance of joint efforts to promote economic security and enhance economic activity between the two nations. Congressman Jonathan Luther Jackson also lauded the visit, saying, “I witnessed the spirit of faith, unity, and discipline in Pakistan.” He termed the visit a unique opportunity to strengthen ties based on shared history and mutual trust. “I firmly believe that Pakistan has a very bright future,” Jackson said, adding that he visited religious sites and met with top leadership in Pakistan.
