On Thursday, Finance Minister Miftah Ismail promised the nation “relief” in petrol and diesel prices in light of declining global crude oil prices as well as the staff-level agreement with the IMF. “After this agreement and the recent decline in international oil prices, God willing, we will now be able to provide relief to our people,” he said in response to a tweet by a journalist. “Saving Pakistan from economic bankruptcy is our first major achievement. Now, we will lead the country towards economic development,” he added.
