Foreign Minister Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari has said that Pakistan is looking forward to participating in Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) summit that is to take place in China this autumn.
While speaking with the state broadcaster China Global Television Network (CGTN), the foreign minister said that he will attend the upcoming summit, and was positive about the China-Pakistan relationship.
Pakistan is the host of one of its global infrastructure projects BRI — China Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) connecting China with the Arabian sea. China has so far invested more than $60 billion and has been assisting Pakistan in assuaging its economic woes.
Hungary’s Minister for Foreign Affairs and Trade Peter Szijjarto has also expressed his optimism to join the BRI summit saying “it benefits all countries cooperating in the framework.”
