رشتے گرم ہوتے ہیں: ٹریڈ ڈیل، کاؤنٹرٹیررورزم، اور علاقائی ڈپلومیسی کو مرکزی مقام پر لایا جاتا ہے

Pakistan's Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar met with US Secretary of State Marco Rubio in Washington, marking the first high-level talks between the two countries in years. The discussions focused on finalizing a long-anticipated trade deal, expanding economic cooperation, and deepening collaboration on counterterrorism and critical minerals. Both sides highlighted Pakistan's role in promoting regional stability, including its efforts in mediating with Iran and supporting anti-terror initiatives. While Pakistan claims a trade agreement is imminent, the US has not confirmed a timeline. The meeting signals a renewed diplomatic upswing and a potential shift in regional dynamics, especially in the context of ongoing tensions with India.
