 In a bid to boost bilateral trade volumes, foreign minister Bilawal Bhutto Zardari said on Tuesday that the current level of trade is not up to par with the huge potential with Iraq. 

 Addressing the Pakistan-Iraq business council in Baghdad, he said the $20 million deal reached during the Pakistan country exhibition in March 2022 demonstrated the strong business potential between the two countries.

He expressed confidence that the Pakistan-Iraq trade forum would provide comparable opportunities for G2G (government-to-government) relations and trade networking between potential investors and trading partners of the two countries.

In five priority areas, including information technology, food security, energy, construction, and medicine, Bilawal emphasized the need for increased cooperation and joint investment.
