In an effort to address the FATF’s concerns and strengthen Pakistan’s case, the government on Friday issued guidelines detailing steps to implement the UNSC 1267 Sanctions. These guidelines were launched at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Launching the guidelines, Foreign Secretary Tehmina Janjua underscored that Pakistan has managed to turn the tide in the fight against terrorism for which there are no parallels. It is important to further consolidate these gains through full implementation of the National Action Plan (NAP). Under the new guidelines, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs maintains consolidated list of individuals and entities designated as terrorist by the UNSC Sanctions Committee.
