Russian leader Vladimir Putin has accepted Prime Minister Yousaf Raza Gilani’s invitation to visit Pakistan in September.
Gilani telephoned Putin on Tuesday to congratulate him on his election as the country’s president.
According to a press release, Gilani told Putin that the fact that people brought him back to office is testimony of them reposing their confidence in his leadership. The prime minister also extended him an invitation to visit Pakistan in September, which was accepted by Putin. The two foreign ministries will decide on the exact date of the visit.
Putin appreciated Gilani and his government’s efforts for consolidating relations between Russia and Pakistan.
Putin, who is currently the prime minister of Russia, was recently elected as the president amid fierce protests and criticism over his control of Russian politics.
