In order to complete a long-awaited bilateral trade deal with Washington, Finance Minister Muhammad Aurangzeb has arrived in the US for a pivotal visit.
Significant progress is anticipated in the continuing negotiations, which are scheduled to conclude in August, according to sources in the Finance Ministry.
Minister Aurangzeb is in Washington for high-level talks with senior U.S. officials to discuss important issues, especially tariff and non-tariff barriers. According to reports, US officials have asked Pakistan to make significant cuts in certain areas in order to facilitate the accord.
A breakthrough is expected shortly, according to Finance Ministry insiders who spoke to TV, and Washington may release a formal statement in the next few days to acknowledge the advancements.
