What happened

Some supportReported by 2 outlets

Pakistan's Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister, Senator Ishaq Dar, addressed the 27th informal meeting of the Economic Cooperation Organisation (ECO) Council of Ministers in New York. Dar stated that terrorism originating from Afghanistan was undermining regional peace and development. Pakistan urged the Taliban regime to take concrete and verifiable action against specific militant outfits, including the Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) and the Balochistan Liberation Army (BLA). The foreign minister also noted that Pakistan had been pursuing constructive engagement by extending bilateral and transit trade concessions to Afghanistan and prioritizing a feasibility study for the Uzbekistan-Afghanistan-Pakistan (UAP) railway project.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The statements underscore the ongoing tension between regional security concerns and the push for economic integration in Central and South Asia. Pakistan's calls for action against groups operating in Afghanistan could influence the viability of regional infrastructure projects like the UAP railway. The willingness of the Taliban regime to cooperate remains central to any potential economic normalization or security improvement in the region.
