Pakistan to move out of FATF grey list: Qureshi

Foreign Minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi hopes that Pakistan will soon move out of the grey list of the Financial Action Task Force (FATF).

“We are moving forward according to our national need and not at the behest of anyone else. The steps taken by our government against money laundering and terrorism financing are our national needs.”

He said Pakistan was on the FATF grey list during the PML-N tenure also and the PTI government had taken steps in the last two-and-a-half years to get out of the list.

Mr Qureshi was talking to the media at the Deputy Commissioner’s Office here on Sunday.
