Shibani Meets Pakistani Foreign Minister to Discuss Strengthening Bilateral Ties and Regional Developments

Foreign Minister Asaad Hassan al-Shibani met on Thursday with Pakistan’s Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs, Mohammad Ishaq Dar, to discuss ways to strengthen bilateral relations and expand cooperation across multiple sectors.

The meeting took place in Islamabad, where both sides reviewed areas of mutual interest and held extensive discussions on regional and international developments, as well as efforts aimed at supporting regional security and stability.

The two ministers reaffirmed the deep-rooted fraternal ties between Syria and Pakistan, underscoring the importance of building on those foundations to broaden cooperation and enhance engagement between the two countries.

Al-Sheibani arrived in Pakistan on Wednesday evening at the head of a high-level delegation, marking the first official visit by a Syrian Foreign Minister to the country in 19 years.

During the visit, he is scheduled to hold a series of meetings with senior Pakistani officials to discuss bilateral relations, avenues for their development, and several regional and international issues of shared concern.

The visit carries strategic weight within the broader framework of Syrian diplomatic efforts to expand Damascus’s ties with Asian nations and strengthen Syria’s presence and cooperation with its partners in political, economic, and other key fields.
