The two countries are also closely cooperating to enhance regional connectivity, especially by early construction of Trans-Afghan Railway Project between Pakistan, Afghanistan and Uzbekistan. The Adviser to the Prime Minister on Commerce and Investment, Mr. Razzak Dawood, visited Tashkent in February last month.
During the visit, a Roadmap on construction of Trans-Afghan Railway Project was signed by the three countries.
The visit of Foreign Minister Kamilov will add to the momentum created by the recent high-level bilateral interactions and provide an opportunity to further strengthen and deepen the existing bilateral cooperation in all areas of common interest, added MoFA.
