China reiterates support for counter-terror efforts

Author: Agencies

Attempts to undermine the mutual trust and cooperation between Pakistan and China would not succeed as both countries shared a long history of cooperation in difficult times.

Chinese Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Lin Jian made these remarks during his regular press conference on Monday.

At his presser he was asked, following the recent attacks on Chinese nationals in Pakistan, has the concern for the security of Chinese citizens increased in Pakistan?

He said, “China reiterates that terrorism is a common enemy of humanity so it is a shared responsibility of the international community to fight terrorism and prevent tragedies from happening again. China will continue to support Pakistan in fighting terrorism.”

He added, “We are firm in our commitment to protecting the safety and security of Chinese nationals, projects and institutions overseas. China and Pakistan have the resolve and capability to foil any attempt to harm China-Pakistan relations and ensure that terrorists will pay the price.”

Jian continued, “China and Pakistan are all-weather strategic cooperative partners as our iron-clad friendship has taken deep roots among our peoples. Attempts to undermine the mutual trust and cooperation between the two countries will not succeed.

He finished on this note, “China will continue to support Pakistan in developing its economy and society and improving people’s life. We will firmly carry out cooperation with Pakistan in various fields for the benefit of the two peoples.”
