Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif said on Friday that Pakistan and Saudi Arabia were ready to finalise and sign a comprehensive economic package under the patronage of Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud.
The prime minister stated this during a telephonic conversation with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, according to a statement issued by the PMO.
Pakistan and Saudi Arabia signed the landmark Strategic Mutual Defence Agreement (SMDA) in September last year, which treats an attack on either nation as an act of aggression against both.
During the warm and cordial exchange, the prime minister congratulated the Saudi crown prince on the signing of the historic Islamabad Peace Deal, the Prime Minister’s Office said in a statement.
