ISLAMABAD: The spokesperson of the Chinese Embassy in Pakistan stressed that, the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) is the framework and platform for comprehensive and substantive cooperation between China and Pakistan.
It is China’s consistent position that CPEC is facing Pakistan as a whole and will bring benefits to Pakistani people. China and Pakistan agreed to construct CPEC with scientific planning in a step-by-step way.
The two sides also agreed that the roads covering western Pakistan are parts of CPEC. They reached consensus on the principle of “one corridor with multiple passages” for CPEC transport planning, aiming at directly benefiting the socio-economic development of Pakistan, especially the western and north-western regions, the spokesman added.
