They also explored expanded cooperation under CPEC Phase 2.0, along with boosting trade, people-to-people links, and multilateral efforts. The two leaders emphasized that their partnership is vital for the progress of both nations and peace across South Asia.
The countries agreed to maintain close coordination at both bilateral and multilateral platforms. Their “all-weather” strategic partnership was described as essential to regional security and economic development.
This visit marks Wang Yi’s first trip to Pakistan since India’s cross-border strike in May. His earlier meeting with Field Marshal Asim Munir in Beijing has also helped reinforce trust between the two nations. Talks on arms control and disarmament were also recently held in Beijing.
