Foreign Minister Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari said that he had discussed Lyari’s football potential with FIFA President Gianni Infantino. He also felicitated Qatar for hosting the historic FIFA World Cup 2022.

Bilawal flew to Doha on Tuesday to watch FIFA World Cup matches on an invitation from Qatar’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

Bilawal said Pakistan is proud of its partnership with Qatar as the country’s labourers and security forces are playing their part in making this historic moment possible.

The foreign minister later visited the country’s embassy and expressed his pleasure that the purpose-built facility is “providing quality consular services to the community.”
