“The mere presence of the foreign minister and the attitude that she has displayed so far is in itself a message to the world... She is a great chance for us all,” Davutoğlu said after talks with Khar, who was wrapping up a two-day visit to Turkey
“I am confident that her elegance and dignified standing will boost the image not only of Pakistan , but also of Asia and the Islamic world,” he said. “She will be a strong voice of the Islamic community in the world.”
Stressing that she had a single message as both a foreign minister and a woman, Khar said: “We want to be able to live in peace with our neighbors... And the only way to solve problems ... is to be able to engage with each other in a way that will enable us to build trust and therefore have the confidence to eventually conduct real dispute resolution.”
Davutoğlu said he and Khar discussed ways to improve cooperation and double bilateral trade to 2 billion dollars in 2012.
Khar’s visit to Turkey was her second foreign trip after a much-publicized visit to India
