National Assembly Speaker, Sardar Ayaz Sadiq, says Pakistan and Sweden have vast opportunities to strengthen bilateral cooperation and establish a broader, more comprehensive relationship.

He was talking to Swedish Ambassador Ms. Alexandra Berg Von Linde, who called on him in Islamabad today.

The Speaker said this relationship can be based on robust economic ties and further expand to include areas such as political relations, trade and investment, education, and people-to-people contacts.

He urged Swedish investors to explore opportunities in key sectors such as energy generation, telecommunications, oil exploration, trade, and manufacturing, where significant potential for growth exists.

The Speaker specifically stressed the need for more frequent dialogue between Pakistani and Swedish parliamentarians, to exchange views and share experiences.

He also conveyed Pakistan’s appreciation for its relations with Sweden, particularly the contributions made by Swedish companies operating in Pakistan’s economy.

The Ambassador further emphasized that increasing parliamentary engagement between the two countries would help fortify the existing positive relationship.
