Caretaker Prime Minister Anwaarul Haq Kakar will visit Davos, Switzerland, from January 15 to 19 to participate in the 54th Annual Meeting of the World Economic Forum, the Foreign Office said. The theme of this year’s meeting is “Rebuilding Trust”.
FO Spokesperson Mumtaz Zahra Baloch, in her press briefing, said that PM Kakar would attend three key thematic events, including preventing an era of global conflict, restoring faith in the global system, and preventing economic fracture.
PM Kakar would also deliver a keynote address on the theme “Trade Tech’s Trillion Dollar Promise” and hold meetings with government and business leaders on the sidelines, she added.
Speaking of other issues, the FO spokesperson said Pakistan rejected the US State Department’s classification of it as a ‘Country of Particular Concern’. “There are serious questions about the credibility and transparency of the process of making such classifications,” she added.
