March 22, 2024 (MLN): Pakistan has reaffirmed its commitment to the Iran Pakistan gas pipeline project as the Foreign Office Spokesperson Mumtaz Zahra Baloch on Thursday said that it is the sovereign decision of the Pakistani government to move forward on the project.

According to a post by the Ministry of Information, Mumtaz Zahra Baloch was responding to the queries of the media persons regarding a US congressional hearing, at her weekly news briefing in Islamabad.

She made it clear that at this point there is no room for any discussion or waiver from any third party for the construction of the pipeline inside Pakistan's territory.

“Pakistan has also conveyed to the US authorities the importance of this project for its energy security,” she further noted.

She said Pakistan values its close relations with the US and believes in constructive engagement with it.

Pakistan respects the prerogative of legislative bodies to discuss international issues. She, however, said the deliberations of these legislative bodies should contribute to promoting positive dynamics in bilateral ties based on mutual respect and understanding.
