The leaders will review the entire gamut of bilateral relations, with a particular focus on stronger trade and economic cooperation including China Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC).

They will also have a wide-ranging exchange of views on major regional and international issues.

The prime minister’s visit would mark the culmination of celebrations commemorating the 70th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between Pakistan and China, with more than 140 events organized to showcase the resilience of the All-Weather Strategic Cooperative Partnership amidst the COVID-19 pandemic and the unfolding international situation.
