Attack outside Chinese consulate: Pak-China relations can never be undermined, says PM Khan
Islamabad, Nov 23: Recently, Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan went to China seeking help to save his country from further economic downfall. Pakistan also banks heavily on the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) hoping that it would see a turnaround in its financial fortunes. On Friday, November 23, the Pakistani establishment was left embarrassed as firing took place outside the consulate of all-weather friend China, resulting in deaths of three terrorists and two law-keepers.
PM Khan strongly condemned the incident and ordered a thorough inquiry into it. "The prime minister has ordered a complete inquiry into the incident and has desired that elements behind this incident must be unearthed. [The] incident is part of conspiracy against Pak and China economic and strategic cooperation," Pakistan daily Daily cited Khan as saying in a statement after the security forces foiled the terror attack targeting the Chinese consulate.
