A bilateral meeting between the leaders of Pakistan and India is not planned, according to foreign minister (FM) Bilawal Bhutto, who was present at the gathering in Tashkent.
Since both India and Pakistan are SCO members and merely participate in the organization’s general activities, Bilawal stated that there are “no arrangements” for meetings between the prime ministers of those countries in September.
India is a neighboring country, according to the foreign minister. While there are many things that one can pick, one cannot choose their neighbor, thus we should get used to living next to them.
In addition, it has been claimed that the summit will feature a meeting between Chinese Xi and Russian Putin. China has increased its purchases of Russian oil while refusing to denounce Moscow’s invasion of Ukraine.
Meanwhile, PM Modi will inaugurate the IDF World Dairy Summit 2022.
