ISLAMABAD: Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif Thursday said the Chabahar and Gwadar seaports would work as ‘sister ports’ and their operational activity would complement each other.
The Prime Minister expressed these views while talking to Rear Admiral Ali Shamkhani, Secretary Supreme National Security Council of Iran here at the PM House.
The Prime Minister said Pakistan and Iran are brotherly countries and share deep historic and cultural ties. He mentioned that Pakistan had rendered invaluable sacrifices in war against terrorism and Operation Zarb-e-Azb was yielding very positive and fruitful results.
