The White House has confirmed the itinerary of Prime Minister Imran Khan’s first visit to the United States, putting to rest a guessing game in the media about the trip set off by an earlier State Department statement.
“President Donald Trump will welcome Prime Minister Imran Khan of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan to the White House on July 22, 2019,” the White House press secretary said in a statement Wednesday evening.
The visit, it said, will focus on strengthening cooperation between the United States and Pakistan to bring peace, stability, and economic prosperity to a region that has seen far too much conflict.
“President Trump and Prime Minister Khan will discuss a range of issues, including counter terrorism, defense, energy, and trade, with the goal of creating the conditions for a peaceful South Asia and an enduring partnership between our two countries,” it added.
