A “bi-annual occasion for military to military collaboration between the two countries,” he continued, the conference was. Since 2016, senior military leadership from Pakistan has taken part in the event, according to the ISPR DG.

On Sunday, COAS Munir landed in the UK. He would attend talks on defense-related subjects scheduled for February 5 through February 9, according to a report at the time by Dawn. Gen. Munir was reportedly in London for a session at Wilton Park, an executive organisation established by the UK Foreign Commonwealth and Development Office to encourage open communication between countries.
