According to Hafiz Muhammad Tahir Mahmood Ashrafi, Pakistan has conveyed its gratitude to Kuwait, the United Arab Emirates (UAE), and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) for their significant contributions to the country’s economic growth, which have given it a much-needed boost during difficult times. Speaking with both domestic and foreign media, he said that Pakistan’s foreign exchange reserves would be greatly bolstered by the $3 billion that Saudi Arabia, a longstanding ally, had extended for an additional year. This move further solidified Pakistan’s economic base in the face of global unpredictability. According to Ashrafi, the UAE has entered into ground-breaking multibillion dollar agreements in a variety of industries after realising their mutual economic interests.
