Islamabad, 21 SEPT – Pakistan and Cyprus enjoy cordial historic relations in different areas of mutual interest including political, social and trade.

Chairman Senate Muhammad Sadiq Sanjrani expressed these views while talking to Honorary Consul General of the republic of Cyprus who called on him here at Parliament House on Monday.
Chairman Senate said that boosting the parliamentary relations would not lonely enhance the chances for better trade relations but would also argument the existing political ties between two countries.

He said that a large number of Pakistan students are also studying in Cyprus and we expect that they would also be properly facilitated. Chairman Senate calls for exchange of delegations from Chambers of Commerce of both the countries to increase the trade volume.
