| dc.description.abstract | The aim of this work is to provide a comprehensive framework about historical relations between two Muslim neighbours, especially in the context of Afghanistan PakistanTransit Trade Agreement-2010 (APTTA) and its implications for Pakistan. Trade always plays a positive role to build peace and harmony between different countries. People of different nations cooperate with each other and trade can be used an effective tool in bilateral relations. Since implementation of APTTA-2010, there is consecutive fluctuation in mutual transit trade and there could be huge profit if the same was implemented in letter and spirit. Regrettably, the trade volume is going down day by day which is hampering economy of both the countries. No doubt, both the countries have pathetic historical background but on many occasions they showed amicable relations. In fact, Afghanistan and Pakistancan get massive benefits by establishing trade and peace harmony. Interestingly, Pakistanearned more revenue as compare to Afghanistan in bilateral trade but some hidden hands did not want to see economic boost up in the country. Informal trade can be more fatal for poor revenue and it should be controlled by taking solid measures. Moreover, how we can develop and secure this agreement? While perusing the historical aspects, a student of history can find that most of the time, the government of Afghanistan showed it's proclivity towards Russia formerly Union of Soviet Socialist Republic as well as India for foreign trade and now many Afghan businessmen and entrepreneurs are willing to establish their trade with Central Asian States instead of Pakistan. That is a grave situation for the government of Pakistan. Now, it is decisive time to launch commendable steps in formulating bilateral trade with Afghanistan because being neighbour and Muslim country, Afghanistan can provide huge advantages to Pakistanbecause Afghanistan being a land cocked country intends to take advantages in developing its economy. This dissertation is a review about the prevailing position of the Afghanistan and PakistanTransit Trade Agreement-2010 that was signed to provide benefits to Afghanistan through sea-ports of Pakistan. | en_US |
