Belarus delegation arrives in Pakistan as PTI protests loom

A 68-member delegation from Belarus arrived in Islamabad ahead of President Alexandr Lukashenko's state visit. This visit follows a recent agreement to establish a trade roadmap between Pakistan and Belarus for 2025-2027. The delegation's arrival coincides with protests planned by the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) party, led by former Prime Minister Imran Khan. Despite a court ruling declaring the protests unlawful, PTI supporters began traveling to the capital to demonstrate against the current government. Pakistani officials have expressed concerns about the protests affecting the Belarusian delegation's visit. Security measures have been implemented to ensure the safety of foreign dignitaries during this time.
