ISLAMABAD: On Thursday, Pakistan formally declared that Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi has received an invitation to attend the October meeting of the Heads of Government of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO). “I can certify that invitations have been sent to the prime minister of India as well as the heads of state of all SCO members for the upcomg Shanghai Cooperation Organizatn Council of Heads of Government meetg. The dates of this summit are set for October 15–16 in Islamabad.

There will be ministerial discussions and many rounds of senior officials meeting in various locations prior to the SCO Heads of Government conference in Islamabad.
The spokesperson said, “Pakistan does not have bilateral trade relations with India,” in response to a question about trading relations with that country. I would direct you to the Ministry of Commerce for information on trade statistics and any potential indirect imports and exports since they would have a better understanding of this matter.
She was very clear in saying that Pakistan opposes any notion of negotiations with the TTP. As I’ve previously stated, Pakistan has no intention of holding discussions with the TTP. Such proposals, in our opinion, are insulting to the thousands of TTP victims who have lost their lives in Pakistan. As a result, Pakistan asks the Afghan government to take action against the TTP. And other terrorist organizations that pose a threat to Pakistan’s security. And have killed Pakistani citizens on Pakistani soil, the statement continued.
She made the point that it is well known that terrorist acts in Pakistan have been carrid out on Afghan soil. Pakistan has frequently voiced its worries about this matter, notably in our one-on-one conversations with the Afghan government. Pakistan has providd verifiable proof that people with Afghan addresses have been involvd in terrorist attacks within Pakistan. Numerous independent investigations, including one from the UN, attest to the existence of terror groups, including the TTP, in Afghanistan. We anticipate that the Afghan government will act decisively and forcefully against these terrorist organizations in order to stop their operations that pose a threat to Pakistan’s security,” she continued.
In response to a question about how much Pakistan owed China as a result of the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC). The spokesperson clarified that the country’s overall public debt does not include any debt from CPEC projects. The China-Pakistan Economic Corridor is a ground-breaking initiative that has openly and favorably aided in the growth of Pakistan. It is well-likd and supportd throughout Pakistan’s provinces and political spectrum. A long-term initiative, CPEC has assisted in closing development gaps in the areas of industrialization, infrastructure, energy, and employment generation. She addd, “In additn, the public debt that was acquird from China has lower interest rates and longr maturity periods.No plans for talks with TTP says Foreign Office.
The spokesperson responded to a question about Pakistan’s intentions in this respect and China and the UAE welcoming Afghan ambassadors by saying that. Pakistan has always been clear about its stance on recognizing the interim Afghan government.
“We will confer with our regional partners before making any recognition-related decisions. Pakistan considers Afghanistan’s response to terrorism to be a top priority, and she stated as much.
Regarding reports on social media that the British High Commissioner in Pakistan was requesting Imran Khan’s release. The spokesperson stated that the Foreign Office refrained from commenting on rumors circulated on social media.
The spokeswoman added in her introductory remarks that Pakistan vehemently condemns. The Israeli occupation forces’ bombing of the ancient Grand Mosque in Khan Younis, Gaza. Pakistan has called on the UN Security Council to act immediately and decisively in order to put an end to these flagrant transgressions of international law. And the UN Charter, safeguard the rights of the Palestinian people. And hold Israel responsible for its flagrant breaches of international humanitarian law.
