ISLAMABAD: Senior official at the US Dept of State for South & Central Asian Affairs, Eric Meyer attended the two-day Pakistan Minerals Investment Forum 2025 (PMIF25) here on 8th & 9th April.
On the margins of PMIF25, Eric Meyer stated: “I commend Pakistan for convening the Minerals Investment Forum here in Islamabad and for taking steps to ensure a level playing field for investors. Critical minerals are the raw materials for our most important technologies, and President Trump has underscored the importance of securing America’s minerals future.
“Although we’re in Islamabad to focus on minerals, I also want to highlight other recent successes in our economic partnership. We recently celebrated the return of US soybean exports to Pakistan. Four vessels carrying more than 260,000 tons of soybeans have arrived over the last few weeks. It’s a win-win for US exporters and for Pakistanis alike, and we look forward to more such wins in the future.
“What makes me most optimistic about the US-Pakistan partnership is that our cooperation is based on the close and enduring ties between our peoples. So many of you have studied in the United States, participated in our exchange programs, have family, friends and business partners in the US I’m looking forward to working with each of you as we work together to lead the charge in deepening the partnership between the US and Pakistan.”
