As the royal couple arrived at the Nur Khan Airbase on Monday, they received a welcome by Pakistan Foreign Minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi and his wife, reported Dawn.

The visit was organized at the request of the United Kingdom Foreign and Commonwealth Office.

This is the first royal tour to the country since 2006 when the Prince of Wales and the Duchess of Cornwall, Prince Charles, and Camilla, traveled to Pakistan.
