ISLAMABAD—China’s Premier Li Qiang took part in a ceremony during his Pakistan visit to inaugurate a Beijing-funded airport, located in a volatile region
where Chinese interests are routinely targeted by separatists.
“China will continue to work with Pakistan to uphold the principle of planning together, building together and benefitting together,” Li said at the ceremony alongside Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif. He will also take part in the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation summit that Islamabad is hosting on Tuesday and Wednesday.
But ties are strained by several militant attacks that have targeted CPEC projects and killed more than 20 Chinese nationals in several attacks in the past three years.
