Foreign Minister Hina Rabbani Khar said that ECO had achieved progress in achieving economic cooperation in the region. In her message on the 20th ECO Day, she said that it gave her great pleasure to convey felicitations of the government and citizens of Pakistan, to member states of the Economic Cooperation Organization (ECO). She said, “However, while we celebrate the organisation’s achievements, we must also take this opportunity to reflect on the challenges still facing ECO regions. The 20th Council of Ministers and 12th ECO Summit held in October 2012 in Baku, Azerbaijan, provided us a good opportunity in this regard. I am confident that we will be able to timely achieve the objectives and agreements reached during the summit.”
