ISLAMABAD: Pakistan’s Information Minister Attaullah Tarar on Wednesday said that several Memorandums of Understanding (MoUs) for cooperation were signed between “Pakistan Television (PTV) and Iran Broadcasting, [Pakistan Electronic Media Regulatory Authority] PEMRA, the Iranian Regulatory Authority, and three private Pakistani media institutions.”
In a post on X, the information minister said the two neighbors were “together on the journey of progress,” calling the collaboration a “matter of honor” for Pakistan.
“Thank you, my dear brother. My compliments to your team, which has worked hard in enhancing cooperation in media. Great work done,” the information minister said.
According to the Associated Press of Pakistan (APP), the series of MoUs signed were to enhance bilateral cooperation in broadcasting, film production, media regulation, and cultural exchange.
While speaking at the event, according to APP, the information minister said that the visit of the Iranian media delegation was “productive and inspiring,” adding that the signing of the MoUs showed governments’ resolve to strengthen people-to-people connections and promote shared values of peace, brotherhood, and resistance against oppression.
Pakistan Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar and his Iranian counterpart, Mohammad Javad Araghchi, last month reaffirmed their resolve to strengthen bilateral cooperation and promote regional stability.
During their telephonic conversation, the two leaders reviewed the state of Pakistan-Iran relations and exchanged views on regional developments, stressing the importance of "expanding collaboration in both bilateral and multilateral forums.”
In a meeting with Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi, Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian also said that Iran attaches special importance to its relations with Pakistan and cannot forget the endless cooperation between the two countries, expressing satisfaction with bilateral ties.
