In his remarks, the Chinese ambassador to Pakistan thanked the Army Chief for organizing the event on the eve of the PLA’s anniversary. He said Pakistan and China are strategic allies, all-weather allies, and iron brothers.
According to the Chinese ambassador, the recent China-Pakistan Joint Committee of Cooperation conference established a significant platform for military cooperation that will be useful for the two nations’ military-to-military relations.
China-Pakistan military ties:
The development of bilateral relations between China and Pakistan has been significantly influenced by the military-to-military ties that have long served as the floor of the friendship between China and Pakistan.
In areas including high-level meetings, joint training and exercises, anti-epidemic cooperation, and equipment technology, the two armies have produced productive outcomes, continuously enhancing the meaning of bilateral strategic cooperation.
In March, China’s Ministry of National Defense spokesperson, Colonel Wu Qian, said that the Chinese and Pakistani military are prepared to take their practical collaboration in several areas to a new level and give their all-weather strategic cooperative relationship a new push.
