2022-11-03

On November 2, Prime Minister Shabaz Sharif of Pakistan said in an exclusive interview with Xinhua News Agency reporters in Beijing that Pakistan and China are all-weather strategic partners. The two countries share a common destiny. Pakistan will work with China to build a Pakistan China community of common destiny and contribute wisdom and strength to the harmonious and stable development of the region and the world. Shabaz paid an official visit to China on November 1 and was one of the first foreign leaders invited to visit China after the successful convening of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China. This visit is also his first visit to China since he became Prime Minister. In 1981, Shabaz came to China for the first time at the age of 30. He was deeply impressed by the buses and bicycles on the streets. "Cars were almost invisible at that time." Shabaz said in an exclusive interview that, however, he deeply felt the strength of China's efforts to move forward. Over the next 40 years, Shabaz has visited China many times and witnessed the development process of China becoming the second largest economy in the world. When talking about the topic of China's development, Shabaz mentioned the word "foresight" many times. "China has created a unique development miracle, and the birth of the miracle cannot be separated from the excellent quality of the CPC - foresight and dedication." In Shabaz's view, the implementation of every major decision in China reflects the foresight of the CPC leadership. He said that China's development will not stop. The successful convening of the 20th CPC National Congress sent a strong signal to the world that China will adhere to the path of sustainable, stable and peaceful development. Shabaz said that since the 18th CPC National Congress, China has eliminated absolute poverty, and its employment, education, medical security and other systems have been constantly improved. Shabaz said that he believed that China will continue its momentum of development and create new brilliance in the future, and the Pakistan China friendship will continue to go deep and solid. Shabaz said that since the establishment of diplomatic ties 71 years ago, the two countries have always trusted and respected each other, and the "iron" friendship between the two sides has set a model for exchanges among countries. As an "iron" brother, Pakistan will learn from China's successful experience and promote the quality and efficiency of modernization through a series of practical measures. Shabaz was responsible for the construction of several energy projects in the China Pakistan Economic Corridor and the Lahore Orange Line Metro. Speaking of the experience in the construction of the China Pakistan Economic Corridor, Shabaz proudly introduced to the reporter that "China has the 'Shenzhen speed', and we have the 'Pakistan speed'". The Pakistani construction party even broke the record of the shortest time for the Chinese construction party when building the energy project of the China Pakistan Economic Corridor. Shabaz said that the construction of the China Pakistan Economic Corridor has changed Pakistan's industrial and energy structure, reversed the dilemma of power shortage, and greatly improved the accessibility of domestic roads. In the next stage, the construction of the China Pakistan Economic Corridor will also extend to agriculture, Internet technology and other fields, and the broad prospects for cooperation will effectively interpret the profound connotation of the "iron core" friendship. Shabaz said that in today's world, cooperative development is the key to achieving world stability. He said,
