ISLAMABAD: Pakistan on Friday launched the guidelines for the implementation of the UNSC 1267 sanctions at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs after consultation with stakeholders and in compliance with International standards.
A large number of representatives of the federal and provincial governments including those of financial institutions, law enforcement and other implementing agencies attended the event, said a news statement issued by foreign office here.
On the occasion, Foreign Secretary Tehmina Janjua underscored that Pakistan had managed to turn the tide in the fight against terrorism for which there were no parallels.
