ISLAMABAD: Pakistan is a diversified country. However, only a negative image is being projected in the Western world, Senate Chairman Mian Raza Rabbani said on Tuesday. He was talking to Romanian Ambassador Nicolae Goia at the Parliament House. “Pakistan places its mutual relations with Romania at high esteem and desires to further expand these ties in different sectors,” he said. Both of them agreed to boost the parliamentary linkages to explore the avenues for enhanced economic ties for mutual benefit of the people of both the countries. “Both the countries have long relationship on bilateral level and we would like to establish strong cooperation between the Parliaments of two countries. Parliamentary diplomacy can play an important role in building socio-economic ties. Both the countries may further enhance interaction benefiting from gains achieved at the common forums,” Rabbani said. Both sides agreed to utilise parliamentary friendship groups and reciprocate by devising modalities for exchange of delegations and sharing experiences.
Rabbani extended invitation to his Romanian counterpart to visit Pakistan for enhancing cooperation between the two sides.
