IDB President has said that his institution is willing to help Afghan people, ahead of Organization of Islamic Cooperation session in Islamabad.

President of Islamic Development Bank(IDB) Dr. Muhammad Sulaiman Al-Jasser said on Friday his institution was willing to help Afghan people while holding a meeting with Pakistan’s planning minister Asad Umar ahead of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation’s extraordinary session focusing on humanitarian assistance to the war-battered country.
A multilateral development finance institution based in Jeddah, the bank has 57 shareholding member states with the single largest contribution coming from Saudi Arabia.
Pakistan has been striving to convince the world to provide necessary humanitarian assistance to Afghanistan since the departure of international forces in August that also led to a financial meltdown in the aid-dependent economy.
“Dr. Muhammad Al-Jasser highlighted that the Bank Group has had the experience of delivering humanitarian assistance in conflict-afflicted countries such as Palestine, Yemen, Syria, and Iraq,” said an official statement released by the planning ministry. “The Bank would garner all its institutional capacities to meet the expectations of alleviating the sufferings of the people of Afghanistan as well as meet the expectations of its member countries and the international community.”
