Pakistan foreign policy must respond to shifting trends: FM Qureshi

MM News Staff by MM News Staff
December 29, 2021

ISLAMABAD: Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi Wednesday said that Pakistan’s foreign policy must respond adequately to the shifting trends and must navigate through this external environment to ensure the security of Pakistan’s sovereignty, territorial integrity and independence, and advancement of development agenda.

The foreign minister, addressing the passing out ceremony of Foreign Service Probationers, said for the first time, Pakistan had re-oriented the thrust of its diplomatic efforts towards economic benefit and prosperity of the masses.

“Economic Diplomacy is not just a buzzword, but a blueprint to leverage our diplomatic assets in the service of our development agenda. We have put in place a “Strategic Engagement Plan” with the European Union and the “Strategic Economic Framework” with Turkey,” he remarked.

He said in order to explore untapped markets and opportunities, the government had launched the “Engage Africa” Initiative.

Going forward, our pivot towards Economic Diplomacy will gather further momentum as new avenues are opened, and existing ones gain greater traction, he added.

Congratulating the probationers passing out of the 41st Specialized Diplomatic Course, the foreign minister said they had had a brief taste of the work related to the recent OIC CFM in Islamabad and did an admirable job.

The foreign minister advised the probationers to strive to serve Pakistan and its people to the best of their ability as their primary focus throughout their careers.

Qureshi said the consular services being provided by the Foreign Office here and abroad through Missions were a critical function. The Government of Pakistan is committed to giving due esteem to overseas Pakistanis and serving them wholeheartedly, he added.

Secondly, he urged them to work hard and be eager to learn, and not restrict themselves to the files on their desk rather keep them updated even if they were assigned a non-political desk.

“Always keep your chin up and do not lose motivation. Be innovative and think outside the box amidst resource constraints. Be mindful of the opportunities and challenges presented by the digital age. Being tech-savvy is no longer optimal,” he said.
