ISLAMABAD: To kick start the implementation of the Green Framework Engagement between Pakistan and Denmark, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs on Wednesday hosted the inaugural meeting of the ‘Joint Committee’.

From the Pakistan side, it was chaired by Ambassador Syed Haider Shah, Additional Secretary (UN&ED). The Danish side was led by Ambassador Jakob Linulf, Embassy of Denmark in Islamabad.

The joint committee was also attended by representatives of Pakistan’s relevant technical ministries and departments, including those at the provincial level, the official news agency reported.
