In view of the changing regional situation, Pakistan's Information Minister Pervaiz Rashid has said that Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif has summoned all Pakistani diplomats stationed abroad to Islamabad, after Eidul Fitr.
Rashid, speaking to the standing committee of the Council of Pakistan Newspaper Editors (CPNE), said the diplomats would be briefed in detail and given instruction in light of the changing scenario in the country.

He added that peace between neighbours is necessary for economic prosperity.
