The Rwandan foreign minister, joined by officials from his country’s trade and development sectors, expressed enthusiasm for expanding business ties and joint ventures. He praised Pakistan’s role in peacekeeping missions in Africa and welcomed further people-to-people exchanges, especially in education and sports.
