Speaking to the Pakistani community at the Consulate General in New York on Saturday, Dar said, “We have made considerable progress, especially in political and economic fields, in the past three years, despite heavy odds – we are indeed a resilient nation.”
“Inflation has come down, and Pakistan’s economic indicators are moving in the right direction,” said Ishaq Dar. “We are no longer in isolation. Our global relationships are strengthening once again.”
Dar also shared details of his recent meeting in Washington with U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio. He described the meeting as warm and productive, with discussions focusing on regional issues and global cooperation.

With inflation dropping and international dialogue increasing, Ishaq Dar remains confident that Pakistan is on the path to long-term recovery and growth.
