ISLAMABAD - China has reaffirmed its resolve to work together with Pakistan to strengthen strategic communication, enhance mutual trust and improve defense cooperation to safeguard peace and stability in the region.

He said given the complex security situation in the region, China is willing to work together with Pakistan to implement the consensus between the two heads of states.
The Spokesman said China and Pakistan are strategic partners and iron brothers that help each other.
He said the visit of Vice Chairman of Central Military Commission of China, General Xu Qiliang to Pakistan was very successful.
General Xu Qiliang led a high-level delegation to Pakistan and held separate meetings with President Arif Alvi, Prime Minister Imran Khan, Chief of Army Staff General Qamar Javed Bajwa and Chief of Naval Staff Admiral Zafar Mahmood Abbassi and discussed issues of mutual interest between the two countries and regional peace and stability.
