LONDON: The United Kingdom has removed Pakistan from its ‘high-threat third countries’ list through a statutory instrument, effectively meaning the UK foreign office recognises the progress Pakistan has made to be removed from FATF’s slate list.
An announcement by the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office on Monday marked this development, saying the UK recognizes Pakistan’s sweats to ameliorate plutocrat laundering and terror backing checks.

Foreign Minister Bilawal Bhutto- Zardari hailed the development on Twitter, saying it was “good news”.
The list includes those countries that the UK deems pose pitfalls due to wrong plutocrat laundering and terror backing controls.
