Pakistan to ‘open the gates’ for Russia in oil and gas exploration – Minister Russia has a very advanced and well-developed oil and gas sector. Pakistan feels that on the petroleum sector side, we can collaborate to not just benefit ourselves, but also to benefit Russian companies, Sardar Awais Ahmad Khan Leghari, Federal Minister of Energy of Pakistan, told Sputnik. The minister stated that regarding Russian-Pakistani cooperation, Islamabad could “open the gates“ of its oil and gas exploration, which it plans to pursue and develop as a “key backbone” of the country’s future economy.
