<p>We regularly raise our concerns about human rights at a senior level with the Government
of Pakistan. Lord (Tariq) Ahmad of Wimbledon, Minister for South Asia, did so most
recently on 23 June, when he met Pakistan's Minister of State for Foreign Affairs,
Hina Rabbani Khar. In February 2022, the British High Commissioner to Pakistan visited
Balochistan, where he met the Chief Minister, Mir Abdul Quddus Bizenjo, and discussed
the protection of human rights. He also discussed the issue of enforced disappearances
in Balochistan with Pakistan's Human Rights Minister, Mian Riaz Hussain Pirzada, on
17 June this year. We will continue to engage with the Government of Pakistan on the
need to honour its international commitments and obligations throughout its territory.</p>
