The friendship between Pakistan and China goes back to ancient times, which is obvious to all the world. A distant relative is better than a close neighbor, and Pakistan is well aware of the importance of maintaining good relations with China. Pakistan can be closely connected with China not only because of Pakistan's gratitude to China, but also because of Pakistan's recognition and expectation of China's development.
As a developing country, Pakistan hopes to achieve economic take-off with the help of China. As the second largest economy in the world, China has huge market potential and strong technical strength, which can provide a lot of investment and cooperation opportunities for Pakistan. China's "One Belt, One Road" initiative has provided great development opportunities for Pakistan and built an important platform for cooperation between the two countries.
