“Our trade must be based on secure, open, consistent, reliable and legal movement of goods at the Afghanistan border along with enhanced connectivity with Afghanistan and CARs, the adviser said this on his official twitter account.
He said that this is a long-term vision and, through our current engagement with Afghanistan and Uzbekistan, “we are laying down the foundation for its implementation.”

Pakistan discussions with Afghanistan over the past few days are a step in that direction, he informed.
