March 17, 2020: Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi says China and Pakistan are committed to advance construction of the flagship project CPEC of Belt and Road Initiative.

About peace agreement between the United States and Afghan Taliban, he said Pakistan has always been supporting the establishment of peace and stability in Afghanistan.

The foreign minister said Pakistan has been advocating that the Afghan issue could only be resolved through talks and the lasting settlement of this issue could be achieved through political negotiations.

About President Dr Arif Alvi’s present visit to China, he said it would further cement the historic bonds of trust and mutual support between the two all-weather friends and iron brothers.
