Islamabad:
A high-level US investment delegation, led by Gentry Beach, manager of a Texas Hedge Fund and a close business partner in the Trump family, has arrived in Pakistan for a crucial two-day visit.
The visit is of particular importance as it marks the first US delegation to visit Pakistan since the Trump administration joined.
Sources indicated that the visit would potentially pave the way for new investment opportunities, financial cooperation and stronger bilateral ties between the two nations.
Several investment agreements between Pakistan and the United States are reportedly signed during the visit, which further cements the potential for financial cooperation.
Furthermore, Gentry Beach’s presence is seen as an important diplomatic performance for Pakistan, considering his close affiliation with the Trump family and his role in President Trump’s previous election campaigns.
His visit emphasizes strengthening economic and political relations between the two countries in the early days of the new US administration.
During a recent event at Mar-A-Lago after the presidential election, Gentry Beach expressed deep appreciation for Pakistan, recognizing the victims that have waged in the war on terrorism.
“People in Pakistan have sacrificed victims in the war against terrorism, and thousands of people have fallen victim to terrorism,” he said. “Pakistan is a fantastic country and its environment is conducive to US President Trump.”
