Concluding Remarks by the Chairperson of the Trade Policy Review Body, H.E. Mr. Ángel Villalobos Rodríguez of Mexico, at the Trade Policy Review of Pakistan, 30 March and 1 April 2022.

The fifth Trade Policy Review of Pakistan has offered us a good opportunity to deepen our understanding of recent developments in, and challenges to, its trade, economic, and investment policies. Since its fourth TPR in 2015, Pakistan’s initiatives to maintain its participation in the multilateral trading system and take advantage of the opportunities it offers were greatly appreciated. Indeed, the 319 advance written questions submitted by 21 Members and the 33 delegations that took the floor during the first and second day underline the importance attached by Members to Pakistan’s trade and investment policies and practices.
