May 21 is the 73rd anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and Pakistan. Zardari first reviewed the history of exchanges between the older generation leaders of Pakistan and China. "My father-in-law and former Pakistani Prime Minister Ali Bhutto once called on the people of Pakistan to follow China. Prime Minister Ali Bhutto maintains a deep friendship with the older generation of Chinese leaders."
During his first term as President of Pakistan, Zardari visited China nine times and made important contributions to the development of Pakistan-China relations. He said that Pakistan-China relations have a long history and the friendship between the two countries is solid and profound and continues to this day. The Pakistani people love China, and cooperation between the two countries never comes with any political conditions.
Zardari reiterated that Pakistan firmly supports the one-China principle, firmly defends and supports China's core interests, and opposes any form of "Taiwan independence." Taiwan is an inalienable part of China's territory.
"When we choose to stand with China, we are standing on the right side of history!" Zardari said.

As an important pilot project in the joint construction of the "Belt and Road", the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor has entered a new stage of high-quality development, and Gwadar Port is one of the starting points of the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor. During his first term as president, Zardari was very concerned about the development of Gwadar Port. He said that Pakistan especially welcomes Chinese brothers to invest in the construction of Gwadar Port. Over the past 11 years, builders from the two countries have made great progress in the construction of Gwadar Port. Future cooperation prospects will be broader, and they have always been open to investors from all over the world.
Zardari said that Pakistan is planning to promote the inclusion of Chinese as a compulsory curriculum in schools in the country. Brazil and China should continue to strengthen cultural exchanges and cooperation between the two countries, promote frequent exchanges between the two peoples and further consolidate friendship by implementing policies to facilitate personnel exchanges between the two countries.
