KARACHI: Pakistan yesterday said it would continue to import liquefied natural gas (LNG) from Qatar to meet its energy requirement despite a simmering crisis in the Middle East. Minister for Petroleum Shahid Khaqan Abbasi told local English daily Express Tribune that Islamabad would continue to import LNG from Qatar under the February 2016 agreement as “there are no sanctions on Qatar as far as we know”.  “There is no possibility of cancellation or delay in LNG import from Qatar,” Abbasi was quoted as saying.
