General Zhang Youxia expressed that China and Pakistan are all-weather strategic cooperative partners. President Xi Jinping pointed out that China-Pakistan relations should be a model of good-neighborly friendship, a pillar of regional peace and stability, and a benchmark for international cooperation in the Belt and Road Initiative.

张又侠说,中巴是全天候战略合作伙伴。习近平主席指出,中巴关系应当成为睦邻友好的典范、地区和平稳定的支柱、“一带一路”国际合作的标杆。

China has always prioritized the China-Pakistan relations in foreign affairs and appreciated the full support of the new Pakistani government in promoting the development of the bilateral ties.

中方历来将中巴关系放在对外政策的优先位置,我们赞赏巴新一届政府将全力推进双边关系发展的立场。

Together with the new Pakistani government, China is willing to promote their friendly relations further, make every effort to promote the construction of the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC), and better benefit the two nations, Zhang said.

中方愿与巴新一届政府共同传承友好关系,全力推进中巴经济走廊建设,更好地造福两国人民。

General Zhang Youxia added that the relations between Chinese and Pakistani militaries serve as an important backbone of the relations between the two countries. The two militaries should further enhance pragmatic cooperation in all areas, continuously improve the ability to cope with various security risks and challenges, and work together to safeguard the common interests of the two countries.

张又侠表示,中巴两军关系是两国关系的重要支柱,两军应进一步密切各领域务实合作,不断提高应对各种安全风险和挑战的能力,携手维护好两国的共同利益。

General Qamar Javed Bajwa said the friendship between Pakistan and China is “higher than mountains and deeper than oceans”. He thanked China for supporting Pakistan to join the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO). The Pakistani side attaches great importance to the cooperation of the Quadrilateral Cooperation and Coordination Mechanism (QCCM) in Counter Terrorism by Afghanistan-China-Pakistan-Tajikistan Armed Forces and will fully support QCCM.

巴杰瓦说,巴中两国友谊比山高、比海深。感谢中方支持巴方加入上合组织。巴方重视并支持开展“四国机制”合作。

"The Pakistani military and its new government are consistent in their policy towards China," said Bajwa, adding that the Pakistani side is willing to continue to strengthen pragmatic cooperation with China in the areas of counter-terrorism, equipment technology, and personnel training to ensure the safe and smooth development of the CPEC.

巴军方与新政府对华政策是高度一致的,愿同中方不断加强反恐、装备技术、人员培训等领域务实合作,确保巴中经济走廊建设安全顺利推进。
