Islamabad: Defense Minister Khawaja Muhammad Asif has said in a statement that despite the joint conspiracies of India and Israel, the FATF sub-committee has decided that Pakistan will not be included in the “grey list.” China clearly supported Pakistan in the meeting, after which Turkey also endorsed China’s position, while Japan, as the co-chairman of the Asia-Pacific Group, agreed in favor of Pakistan.
Khawaja Asif said that Pakistan has fulfilled all the demands of FATF so far, so there is no justification for remaining on the grey list. He termed it a major national achievement.
This decision was taken at the ICRG meeting where the global financial watchdog countries recognized Pakistan’s transparency and reforms. The Defense Minister highlighted the conspiracies of India and Israel and said that these conspiracies would only lead to diplomatic failure.
