Pakistan, Belarus Advance Economic Ties, Discuss Local Currency Settlements

Pakistan's Commerce Minister Jam Kamal Khan met with Belarusian Ambassador Andrei Metelitsa to advance bilateral economic ties and prepare for the Joint Ministerial Commission. Discussions centered on boosting trade, investment, and industrial cooperation, with a key focus on facilitating bilateral transactions through practical financial arrangements, including local-currency settlements. Both sides noted significant opportunities in agriculture, fertilizers, engineering goods, and energy products. While these efforts support long-term economic stability, they are unlikely to have an immediate, direct impact on Pakistan's gold or currency markets.
