Lithuania was keen to promote bilateral trade and economic relations with Pakistan as it considered Pakistan a promising country for business relations. This was observed by Audrius Bruzga, ambassador of Lithuania for Pakistan based in Turkey while addressing business community at Islamabad Chamber of Commerce and Industry (ICCI). He was accompanied by Muhammad Masud Khan, Honorary Consul General of Lithuania in Pakistan and Kristina Babiciene, Second Secretary of Lithuanian Embassy.
He said Lithuania was a well-integrated with European Union and it wanted to reach out to Pakistan for more cooperation in multiple fields. He said Lithuania had advanced technology and expertise in solar energy while it was generating more than 56% of its energy through renewable sources. He said Lithuania could help Pakistan in overcoming its energy crisis. He said ICCI should form a delegation for Lithuania to explore new areas of mutual cooperation.
Speaking at the occasion, Khalid Malik, Senior Vice President, ICCI said that diplomatic relations between Pakistan and Lithuania were established in 1994 and both countries have held many consultations to improve bilateral relations in many areas including economic, trade, investment, education, science & technology. However, he said bilateral trade between Pakistan and Lithuania was negligible as there was no direct interaction between private sectors of both countries. He stressed that Pakistan and Lithuania should focus on frequent exchange of trade delegations and market information to explore new avenues of mutual cooperation.
He identified textiles, furniture, food processing, petroleum refining, chemicals, agriculture machinery, electronics, information technology and medical science as potential areas of bilateral cooperation between both countries.
