Both sides expressed satisfaction at the steady progress being made on various CPEC projects and reaffirmed their resolve to maintain this momentum.
The two sides exchanged views and explored ways of developing joint proposals on international cooperation and coordination under CPEC.
They rejected attempts to direct self-serving criticism against CPEC and BRI. It was agreed to counter such moves through joint efforts at various levels and modes.
