The foreign minister stated that the timely completion of China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) projects was one of the top priorities of the current government. He said that economic diplomacy was being pursued to promote investment in the country, and reduce the impact of the Covid-19 on economy.

About Afghanistan, the foreign minister said peace and stability in Afghanistan was imperative for the entire region, adding that Pakistan would continue playing its reconciliatory role for peace in the region including Afghanistan.
