Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi has met a bipartisan group of U.S. lawmakers led by Republican Senator Lindsey Graham on the sidelines of the Munich Security Conference, the foreign office said on Saturday.

Senator Graham chairs the Senate Judiciary Committee and also serves on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. Sen. Qureshi said that close engagement between Pakistan and the US had historically proved to be a factor for stability in South Asia. He stressed the importance of a broad-based and structured relationship for promoting the two countries' shared interests. He noted that Pakistan looked forward to enhancing cooperation with the United States in trade, energy and business sectors, a foreign office statement said.
