Azerbaijan is set to invest $2 billion into Pakistan's economy, according to a report from the Pakistani newspaper Dawn. These significant investment agreements will be signed during the upcoming visit of Pakistan's Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif to Baku later this month.
Abdul Aleem Khan, Pakistan’s Minister of Privatization, Investments, and Communications, who is leading the Pakistani delegation to Baku, confirmed that the prime minister’s visit will include the signing of agreements with Azerbaijan, totaling $2 billion. The investments are expected to focus on several key sectors, including oil and gas exploration, the development of renewable energy, and energy efficiency improvements.
The report highlights the growing economic cooperation between the two nations, with Azerbaijan committing to substantial investments aimed at enhancing Pakistan’s energy sector. The planned investments come at a time when both countries are looking to strengthen bilateral ties and boost economic collaboration.
Additionally, it was reported that Rovshan Najaf, the President of SOCAR (State Oil Company of Azerbaijan Republic), recently met with Abdul Aleem Khan in Baku. This meeting is seen as a step toward finalizing the terms of the upcoming agreements and reinforcing the economic relationship between Azerbaijan and Pakistan.
These developments are expected to pave the way for deeper cooperation in energy and infrastructure projects, marking a new chapter in the economic partnership between the two countries.
