Matters of mutual interest were discussed with a specific reference to the generous support by German Government towards the cause of assistance to Afghan refugees. The Minister appreciated the interest of German government in development-oriented Projects through KFW funding in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Province under bilateral cooperation with ministry of SAFRON.
The minister informed the German envoy about Pakistan’s generous services for Afghan refugees over the past 40 years in hosting Afghan refugees.
