Federal Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi on Friday said the government was eager to see the early launch of direct flights between Pakistan and the United States.

The remarks came during a meeting with US Deputy Assistant Secretary of State for South and Central Asian Affairs Paul Kapur and US Chargé d’Affaires Natalie Baker, according to an official statement.

Minister of State for Interior Talal Chaudhry and the federal interior secretary also attended the meeting. Both sides reviewed bilateral relations and exchanged views on the latest situation in the Middle East.

Mohsin Naqvi said Pakistan-US relations were based on mutual trust and bilateral cooperation, adding that ties between the two countries had strengthened during the tenure of US President Donald Trump.

The minister also said Pakistan had ensured foolproof security for American companies working on the Reko Diq mining project in Balochistan. The development comes after Pakistan International Airlines (PIA) resumed direct flights to London following a six year suspension.
