Author: News Desk

Pakistan Foreign Minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi on Monday met Jens Stoltenberg, the secretary-general of the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation (NATO).

The two leaders discussed the security issues concerning Pakistan and NATO with Afghanistan and Kashmir, as well as tensions with India, remaining a central point in their discussions.

Qureshi told the secretary-general about India’s unfortunate and uncooperative attitude regarding regional peace alongside the peace efforts made by Pakistan for South Asia.

Stoltenberg appreciated Pakistan’s efforts and sacrifices for peace and stability in the South and Central Asian region, particularly in Afghanistan.

Speaking to a private TV channel after the meeting, Qureshi said the talks were important for the Pakistan-NATO understanding and relationship.

Islamabad and NATO are cooperating in the field of disaster management, a tripartite commission in Afghanistan, and the training of Pakistani soldiers.
