Islamabad – The United States has returned more than 450 historical and cultural artifacts to Pakistan. An exhibition in Islamabad showcased the valuable items handed back by the U.S. Embassy under a bilateral agreement, marking a total repatriation value of $23 million for 450 artifacts. Speaking at the “Legacy Returns Home” exhibition, U.S. Representative Es Pal highlighted that each statue in the gallery carries a unique history and culture. U.S. Deputy Secretary of State Es Pal Kapoor added that over the past ten years, 514 Pakistani artifacts have been exported and subsequently returned, with an estimated worth of $23 million. Culture Minister Orangi Zub Khichi praised the return of stolen artifacts as a commendable achievement by both the U.S. government and Pakistani foreign ministry officials. Among the 150 items displayed at the Sir Syed Memorial Museum in Islamabad are Buddha statues, Gandhara masterpieces, sculptures, and priceless relics dating back four thousand years. The U.S. Homeland Security Department continues to play a key role in preventing the theft or smuggling of cultural heritage, intercepting valuable artifacts at the border before they reach the American market.
