ISLAMABAD (Dunya News) – Federal Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi says terrorism is a global challenge and urged the international community to urgently cooperate with Pakistan in fight against the global scourge.
He expressed these views while talking to a US Congressional delegation on Sunday. The delegation, led by Representative Jack Bergman (R-MI), along with representatives Thomas Richard Suozzi, Jonathan L. Jackson, and other senior US officials met the interior minister.
The minister said that Pakistan was a wall between terrorism and the world. He stressed on the importance of intelligence and technology sharing in counter-terrorism operations.
The interior minister said that sustainable relations with the United States have been a key in Pakistan's foreign policy. He welcomed the upcoming Pakistan Caucus event in the US on April 30 is a positive development.
Earlier, the US and Pakistan delegations had a detailed discussion on bilateral relations and matters of mutual interest. There was also conversation about advancing cooperation in the fields of economy, trade, and investment, as well as discussions on security, counter-terrorism, and border security.
The Pakistani delegation included Minister of State for Interior Talal Chaudhry, Acting US ambassador Natalie Baker, and Interior Secretary Khurram Agha.
Naqvi stated that Pakistan's unparalleled sacrifices in the fight against terrorism have no parallel in the world. He emphasized that the upcoming visit of the US Congressional delegation will be crucial in highlighting Pakistan's exceptional role in the fight against terrorism.
He mentioned that the recent participation of the US delegation in the Minerals Investment Forum 2025 was a positive development. “The government will ensure all possible facilities for investors and provide complete protection for their investments,” he added.
State Minister Talal said that the joint counter-terrorism dialogue scheduled to be held in Islamabad in June would play a key role in further enhancing mutual cooperation on counter-terrorism efforts.
