巴基斯坦总理谢里夫：巴基斯坦可以提前到2050年前成为全球第六大经济体
巴基斯坦总理谢里夫（Shehbaz Sharif）11月13日在伊斯兰堡举行的2026年巴基斯坦矿业投资论坛上说，巴基斯坦可以提前到2050年之前成为全球第六大经济体。他引用高盛2022年发布的长期展望：按实际美元计算，高盛预测巴基斯坦将在2075年成为全球第六大经济体，排在中国、印度、美国、印度尼西亚和尼日利亚之后。谢里夫说：「我想在这里作一个小小的修正，不是2075年，而是早于2050年。」
谢里夫把实现路径押在矿产上。他说，巴基斯坦拥有铜、金等矿产财富，政府正推动外国投资、现代化勘探和本地加工增值，并特别提到俾路支省的 Reko Diq 铜金矿项目正走向投产。巴基斯坦国防军总司令兼陆军参谋长 Asim Munir 在同一论坛上说，巴基斯坦的目标是成为长期矿业投资中有竞争力的目的地。
按国际货币基金组织的估算，巴基斯坦2026年名义国内生产总值约4500亿美元，居全球第42位上下，与「第六大经济体」的目标之间还有很大距离。谢里夫承认要持续努力，称发展之旅必须顶着经济困难继续走下去。

Pakistan's Prime Minister Sharif: Pakistan Can Become the World's Sixth-Largest Economy Earlier Than 2050
Pakistan's Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif told the Pakistan Minerals Investment Forum 2026 in Islamabad on November 13 that Pakistan can become the world's sixth-largest economy earlier than 2050. He cited a long-term Goldman Sachs assessment from 2022, which projected that Pakistan would rank sixth in the world by 2075, behind China, India, the United States, Indonesia and Nigeria, measured in real U.S. dollars. 'I would like to make a small amendment here,' Sharif said. 'Instead of 2075, it will be earlier than 2050.'
Sharif tied the path to minerals. He said Pakistan holds copper, gold and other mineral wealth, and that the government is promoting foreign investment, modern exploration and local value-added processing, pointing in particular to the Reko Diq copper-gold project in Balochistan moving toward operation. Chief of Defence Forces and Army Chief Asim Munir told the same forum that Pakistan aims to become a competitive destination for long-term mineral investment.
The International Monetary Fund estimates Pakistan's nominal GDP in 2026 at about 450 billion dollars, around 42nd in the world, leaving a wide gap to the sixth-place target. Sharif acknowledged that continuous hard work would be required, saying the journey of development must continue despite economic difficulties.
