While there has been talk in recent years of improving ties between the two nations, Pakistan should not establish trade ties with Israel. Establishing trade ties with Israel would be seen as a betrayal of Pakistan’s long-standing support for the Palestinian people. Furthermore, there is little evidence to suggest that establishing trade ties with Israel would bring any significant economic benefits to Pakistan. Moreover, there are already many other countries with whom Pakistan can trade and establish economic ties, making the need for trade with Israel unnecessary. While it is important for Pakistan to maintain an open and engaged foreign policy, establishing trade ties with Israel would be a step too far.
