PM terms security of Chinese nationals as topmost priority

Prime Minister Muhammad Shehbaz Sharif says, the government’s main concern is ensuring the safety of Chinese nationals employed in Pakistan.

During his visit to the Chinese Embassy in Islamabad [Wednesday], he was speaking with Jiang Zaidong, the Chinese ambassador to Pakistan.

The prime minister vehemently denounced yesterday’s shooting incident against Chinese citizens in Karachi.

He informed the ambassador that he had come to voice his outrage over the occurrence and to check about the health of the Chinese nationals who had been hurt. He claimed that the fact that the injured Chinese citizens are recovering is a source of happiness.

In addition to personally overseeing the probe, the prime minister gave the Chinese ambassador his word that those behind the attack would face consequences.
