BEIJING - Chinese President Xi Jinping on Friday met with Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif and Brazilian Vice-President Geraldo Alckmin in Beijing.
Pointing out that China and Pakistan are good neighbors linked by mountains and rivers, good friends who share faith and righteousness, good partners who help each other, and good brothers who share weal and woe, Xi said the China-Pakistan all-weather strategic cooperative partnership had continuously deepened and enjoyed solid public support with a strong internal driving force and broad prospects for development.
China stands ready to work with Pakistan to firmly support each other, strengthen cooperation, deepen strategic coordination, accelerate the building of an even closer China-Pakistan community with a shared future in the new era, and make greater contributions to regional peace, stability, development and prosperity, he said.
During his meeting with the Brazilian vice-president, Xi said China and Brazil are like-minded good friends, and good partners walking hand in hand.
"In April last year, President Lula and I reached an important consensus on leading and opening up the new future of China-Brazil relations in the new era,” he said.
With joint efforts in the past year, the two countries have continuously deepened strategic mutual trust, steadily advanced pragmatic cooperation, and closely coordinated on the international stage, said the Chinese leader.
This has not only promoted their respective development, but effectively safeguarded the common interests of all developing countries, he added.
