During a meeting with Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif in Beijing on Monday, President Xi noted that since the establishment of diplomatic relations 75 years ago, the two countries have maintained an unbreakable traditional friendship.

President Xi called for steadily advancing the action plan for building a China Pakistan community with a shared future, coordinating the construction of major projects as well as \u201csmall yet beautiful\u201d livelihood projects, and expanding broad cooperation in areas such as agriculture, industry, artificial intelligence and human resource development. He also stressed that the two sides should carry out high level and wide ranging security cooperation to safeguard regional peace and stability.<\/p>\n

Prime Minister Sharif said President Xi is not only a great friend of the Pakistani people, but also of all peace loving people around the world. He noted that the remarkable achievements of China\u2019s economy provide strong assurance for maintaining world peace and building a multipolar world.<\/p>\n

He stated that Pakistan will always remain China\u2019s good friend and partner. Pakistan, he said, is ready to deepen cooperation under the Belt and Road Initiative and advance the construction of the China Pakistan Economic Corridor.<\/p>\n

Sharif also expressed gratitude for China\u2019s support for Pakistan\u2019s role as a mediator in the United States Iran talks.
