Norway Excludes Pakistan from National Threat Assessment List

Islamabad, In a significant diplomatic achievement, Norway has officially removed Pakistan from its national threat assessment list. This decision, reflected in the latest report by the Norwegian Police Security Service, marks the end of the challenges faced by Pakistani students and researchers due to the previous listing.

According to Ministry of Information and Broadcasting, the exclusion of Pakistan from the list is a result of successful diplomatic engagements. Over the past several years, Pakistan, among other countries, had been featured on this list, leading to heightened scrutiny and difficulties for its nationals abroad, particularly in academic and research circles. The recent update signifies a positive shift in Norway’s perception of Pakistan and is expected to facilitate easier international collaboration and travel for Pakistanis.
