A strategic alliance that has been essential to maintaining security in the region, both parties reaffirmed their commitment to strengthening and growing it.

Many important topics, such as defense cooperation and counterterrorism initiatives, were discussed during the conference.

As a “world-class airport” that exemplifies the depth of Pakistan-China friendship, he emphasized the significance of Gwadar airport for improving regional connectivity.

Thanking the labor forces of both countries, he stated, “the airport’s completion will facilitate increased international trade and accelerate development in Pakistan’s western regions, particularly Gwadar.”
