Pakistani President to visit China in first week of February

Islamabad, Jan 28 (Prensa Latina) Pakistani President Asif Ali Zardari will visit China from February 5 to 7, where he will meet with his counterpart Xi Jinping to discuss global and regional issues, the press highlights.

One of the key topics of the analyses will be the progress of phase two of the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC-2). The massive development project mainly benefits Pakistan.

A spokesman for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs said that details of the agenda are still being finalized and agreements are being drafted in collaboration with other relevant ministries. Around two dozen agreements will be signed during the visit.

The visit, initially scheduled for November 2nd, 2024, was postponed after the president suffered an injury while boarding a flight at Dubai airport, according to sources in the Pakistani Foreign Ministry.

Pakistan’s Foreign Ministry reaffirmed its unwavering commitment to the founding principle of the One China Policy, which is a constant cornerstone of Pakistan’s foreign policy, maintained unchanged. “This relationship is characterized by mutual trust, shared values, support on issues of fundamental interest, and a commitment to regional and global stability,” Pakistani authorities said.

The Chinese embassy in Pakistan confirmed that both nations are “all-weather” strategic partners.
