ISLAMABAD: Eric Meyer, a senior official for South and Central Asian Affairs at the U.S. Department of State, has lauded the organization of the Pakistan Minerals Investment Forum 2025.
The two-day Pakistan Minerals Investment Forum’s inaugural session held in Islamabad on Tuesday and attended by both local and international economic experts and delegates.
Speaking at the opening ceremony, U.S. State Department official Eric Meyer said, “I am enjoying the hospitality of Pakistan and commend the Pakistani authorities for successfully organizing this forum. I hope the event will further strengthen the relationship between the U.S. and Pakistan.”
Eric Meyer expressed the hope that the forum would provide equal opportunities for investors. He noted that U.S. President Donald Trump had repeatedly emphasized the importance of minerals and mineral resources.
In recent days, there have been several successful investment initiatives between Pakistan and the United States, including the welcome resumption of soybean trade between the two countries.
He added that four ships carrying a total of 260,000 tons of soybeans had recently arrived in Pakistan. These trade relations indicate the deepening ties between the peoples of both countries. He further stated that many Pakistanis have studied in the U.S. under exchange programs, and such initiatives reflect the strong bonds between the American and Pakistani people.
