Prime Minister Imran Khan has reiterated Pakistan’s support for an Afghan-led and Afghan-owned peace and reconciliation process.

In a telephonic conversation with British Prime Minister Boris Johnson, Imran Khan said there is no military solution to the conflict in Afghanistan and a negotiated political solution is the only way forward.

Underscoring the importance of a responsible withdrawal, the Prime Minister apprised his British counterpart of Pakistan’s on-going efforts to support the Afghan peace process, as part of a shared responsibility.

The Prime Minister expressed the hope that Pakistan and the UK would be able to forge an even stronger partnership going forward, particularly in the domains of trade and investments.

He impressed upon the UK to revisit the decision of placing Pakistan on Red List of travel ban countries.

Imran Khan apprised Prime Minister Boris Johnson of the progress made by Pakistan to strengthen its Anti-Money Laundering and Combating the Financing of Terrorism framework.

The two sides agreed to continue to work together to further strengthen relations and advance the common objective of regional and global peace and stability.
