US Deputy Secretary of State Wendy R. Sherman met Pakistan Foreign Minister Bilawal Bhutto Zardari and discussed Pakistan’s ongoing effor🌜ts to recover from the devastating floods.
Pakistan witnessed unprecedented monsoon rains over the summer that put a third of the country underꦛwater, damaged two million homes and killed🐠 more than 1,700 people.
“D🙈eputy Secretary of State Wendy R. Sherman met Pakistan Foreign Minister Bilawal Bhutto Zardari and they discussed Pakistan’s continuing efforts to recover from the devastating floods,” US State Department spokesperson Ned Price said on Wednesday.
They also discussed the upcoming International Conference on Cli🍌mate Resilient Pakওistan to be held in Geneva on January 9, 2023, Price said.
During the mee💞ting, Sherman also expressed condolences for Pakistani lives lost in recent terrorist attacks, even as they committed to strengthen counterterrorism cooperation between the two🌟 nations.
“They also spoke about econo🍌mic, energy, and environmental cooperation,” Price said. Sherman and Zardari also discussed the Taliban’s deplorable decision to further restrict women’s and girls’ access to education, Price added.
The Taliban rulers on𓂃 Tuesday banned university education for women nationwide, as they took decisive steps to crush their right to education and freedom.
It was a far cry from their promise of a softer rღule when they seized power last year, with the Taliban regime strongly implementing their strict interpretation of the꧟ Islamic law, or Sharia.
