Hassan Nourian, consul general of the Islamic Republic of Iran and dean of the Karachi Consular Corps, hosted a luncheon reception for Syed Awais Qadir Shah, speaker of the Provincial Assembly of Sindh, at the Consulate General of Iran.
The occasion was graced by a four-member delegation from the Iranian Parliament’s Cultural Commission, who are on an official visit to Karachi. Shah was accompanied by PA Deputy Speaker Anthony Naveed, Member National Assembly Mirza Ikhtiar Baig and Pakistan Peoples Party General Secretary Waqar Mehdi.
During the gathering, discussions centred on mutual cooperation and the strengthening of relations between Pakistan and Iran. Shah highlighted the enduring friendship shared by the two neighbouring nations.
“Pakistan and Iran share a strong and friendly relationship as neighbours. It is essential for both countries to maintain and enhance these ties for mutual progress, peace, security and stability.”
The discourse also focused on the challenges facing the global Muslim fraternity and the shared responsibilities of both nations in working towards sustainable solutions for unity and security.
Shah extended his gratitude to CG Nourian for the gracious invitation and the warm hospitality. The CG thanked Shah and the delegation for their time, and also presented a shield to the PA speaker.
Shah also invited the CG to visit the historic PA with his delegation and attend a session of the legislature, further strengthening bilateral ties and cultural understanding. This meeting marked a reaffirmation of the enduring partnership between Pakistan and Iran, reflecting a shared commitment to regional cooperation and unity.
