Pakistan is on a path to become a global economic hub and aims to become a melting pot of competing global economic interests, said SAPM on National Security Division and Strategic Policy Planning, Dr. Moeed Yusuf while chairing the 8th Advisory Board Meeting of the National Security Committee.
While chairing the meeting, SAPM Dr. Moeed Yusuf said that under the economic security model, instead of the conventional geo-strategic lens, Pakistan aims to leverage its geo-economic position by partnering with the world. We are looking for economic partnerships and provide avenues for investment, said Dr. Moeed Yusuf.
Talking on the regional connectivity, the SAPM on National Security Division and Strategic Policy Planning Dr. Moeed Yusuf said that Pakistan because of its geo-economic location has the potential to serve as a regional pivot and become a hub of trade and economic activities. “Pakistan’s vision of connectivity and economic security will bring dividends to the region and the partners”, said Dr. Moeed Yusuf.
He directed the participants to come up with implementable proposals which will set the country on the path to achieve economic security.
Representatives of the Institute of Strategic Studies Islamabad (ISSI), Institute of Regional Studies (IRS), Institute of Strategic Studies, Research and Analysis (ISSRA) of the NDU, Islamabad Policy Research Institute (IPRI) and Center for Aerospace & Security Studies (CASS) attended the meeting.
