Chinese President Xi Jinping has said China will continue to support Pakistan to help it stabilize its economy.
Jinping made the promise as he hosted Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif for talks.
The leaders met at Beijing’s Great Hall of the People on Wednesday, the last day of Sharif’s two-day visit to China, his first since taking office in April.
The Chinese President said the two neighbors should boost collaboration in the development of the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor, a $60bn infrastructure project, as well as speed up work on building the Gwadar seaport in Pakistan’s Balochistan province.
