UK to fully support Pakistan on FATF issue: Christian Turner

British High Commission Christian Turner has said his country will fully support Pakistan on the issue of Financial Action Task Force as Islamabad's performance on the implementation of FATF roadmap is marvellous.

He was talking to Interior Minister Sheikh Rashid Ahmed in Islamabad.

The Minister said Pakistan has so far implemented 24 out of 27 points of the FATF roadmap.

He said Pakistan and the United Kingdom has a long history of bilateral relations and we give immense value to them.

Sheikh Rashid expressing concerns on placing Pakistan onto the red list due to Covid-19 pandemic, said the step has disturbed the Pakistani diaspora living in the United Kingdom.

The two sides also reviewed the progress on extradition treaties of wanted people between the two countries and agreed to complete as early as possible.
