History has fully proved that the two countries are the most reliable iron-clad brothers for each other.”
Under the new circumstances, the two countries should stand together even more firmly and push forward the all-weather strategic cooperative partnership, and build a closer China-Pakistan community with a shared future in the new era,” he added.
