I am pleased that Central Asian leaders are visiting
#Pakistan. These leaders have a strategic interest in access to Pakistan and beyond, including of course to the sea, for their trading ventures. They want railways, pipelines, telecommunications and electricity connectivity between Central Asia and Pakistan. Such a development is clearly in Pakistan's interest as well. Of course, Afghanistan's role is vital to the goal of regional connectivity and development. Stability in Afghanistan and good Pakistan/Afghanistan relations are the absolute prerequisite. I suspect the Central Asian leaders visiting Islamabad are urging improvements in Islamabad's Afghanistan policies. I hope the establishment in Pakistan listens.
