Pakistan has proposed a zero-tariff bilateral trade agreement with the United States (US) following President Donald Trump’s intent to ‘substantially’ boost trade with Pakistan. The Pakistani proposal suggests that both countries enter into an agreement with zero tariffs on selected tariff lines, based on mutual interests, to expand bilateral trade across multiple sectors, the sources said. The move aims to strengthen economic ties and boost trade between the two countries. The proposal came in response to US President Donald Trump’s announcement to increase trade with Pakistan, following his role in brokering a ceasefire agreement between Pakistan and India.
