Pak-Saudi accords will serve as an enduring tribute to the time-tested and fraternal connections that exist between both nations, according to Ishaq Dar, who is both the Deputy Prime Minister and the Foreign Minister of Pakistan.

During a signing ceremony that took place in Islamabad, Dar brought attention to the enduring nature of the relationship between Pakistan and Saudi Arabia.

It has been said by Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif that the attack on Chinese nationals, coupled with the demonstration in the Federal Capital, is a replicate of the events that occurred in 2014-2015, when the visit of the Chinese President was delayed owing to the sit-in that was organized by the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI).

He stated, when addressing the meeting of the Federal Cabinet, that we would not accept a replay of the events that occurred in 2014 and 2015 and that we will leave no stone unturned in order to ensure the safety and security of Chinese engineers.

In September of this year, the State Bank of Pakistan reported that remittances from overseas Pakistanis amounted to 2.8 billion dollars, reflecting a 29% increase compared to the remittances received in September of the previous year.
