The ambassador expressed satisfaction that Pakistan’s exports to France were following an upward trajectory since the launch of economic diplomacy initiated by the embassy in 2016.

He said the total bilateral trade was $1.58 billion in 2017 as compared to $1.467 billion in 2016. He said the data for first eight months of 2018 reflected 8 per cent increase in the bilateral trade, which he termed as a welcoming trend.
