ISLAMABAD, Pakistan: President Dr Arif Alvi said that proactive measures needed to be taken to enhance the quantum of trade between Pakistan and Algeria, as the current volume of bilateral trade was not commensurate to the true potential.
While talking to the Ambassador-designate of Pakistan to Algeria Ata-ul-Munim Shahid at Aiwan-e-Sadr in Islamabad on Thursday, the president urged the ambassador-designate to make efforts to further strengthen bilateral relations in all areas of mutual interest.
Underscoring the focus of the Pakistani government on bolstering its exports through mutually beneficial economic collaboration, the president directed the ambassador-designate to offer Algeria our manpower, experience, expertise, machinery and other related equipment.
Dr Arif Alvi wished the ambassador-designate a successful stay in Algeria and hoped that his tenure will bring more vigor and energy to the bilateral relationship between the two countries.
