NEW YORK: Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif met Iranian President Hassan Rouhani on Wednesday at the United Nations headquarters to discuss Indian state terrorism in occupied Kashmir.

PM Nawaz Sharif continued to meet global leaders at the United Nations headquarters in New York. Hassan Rouhani stressed on the need for more defence cooperation between both countries and said that both Pakistan and Iran's safety was connected with each other. The Iranian President said he considered Pakistan's progress like the progress of his own country.

"Iran and Pakistan have cooperated with each other in defence in the past as well," he said. "Iran would like to be a part of the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor," he said. The Irani President extended an invite to PM Nawaz to visit Iran.

Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif said after the lifting of economic sanctions from Iran, Pakistan desired to double its volume of bilateral trade with the country. He said two focal persons would be appointed on Pak-Iran gas pipeline and other energy projects.

Chabahar and Gwadar ports will prove to be beneficial for regional trade," said Nawaz Sharif.

PM Nawaz addressed the United Nations General Assembly on Wednesday in which he denounced Indian state terrorism and called on UN to conduct an independent probe into the abuse of human rights in occupied Kashmir.

Good, We should improve relation with All countries. While this is most important to me, "Iran would like to be a part of the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor,"
Let Iran join CPEC. This is in the interest of both countries.

Despite having differences on some peripheral issues, both Pakistan and Iran share the same interests at the strategic level. Peace and security is vital for the development and prosperity in both countries. Regional trade links will tremendously benefit both nations. The menace of terrorism abetted and supported by the enemies of Ummah is like poison for both nations. Same terrorist infrastructure created by foreign agencies in Pakistani Balochistan is used to bleed Iranians in Iranian Sistan. The people of both countries expect from their leaders that they bring the two nations even closer. We, Pakistanis, must not forget that Iran was the first country in world to recognize Pakistan as an independent state. Our great poet, Allama Iqbal, is followed and taught probably more in Iranian universities than in Pakistani universities. It's our bad luck that our ignorant leaders could not build on these strong underlying bonds between the two nations.
