US envoy favours India-Pakistan trade enhancement
US Ambassador to India Richard R. Verma on Wednesday favoured enhancement of trade between India and Pakistan, and said he would certainly do whatever was possible to push both the governments to resolve the issues at the earliest.
“There is indeed immense potential to save huge transportation costs and time if more and more trade is done through land route via the Attari-Wagah border,” he said.
He was here in the Punjab border town to listen to Confederation of Indian Industry’s (CII) concerns and possible solutions to enhance trade between India and Pakistan through the land route.
