Pakistan’s Prime Minister Imran Khan began a four-day visit to China on Friday to shore up support for a financial bailout that the South Asian nation desperately needs.
China’s President Xi Jinping said after meeting Khan in Beijing that he will work to strengthen the “all-weather strategic partnership and build a new era of China-Pakistan destiny.” The Pakistani premier said his country was going through “a low point” with fiscal and current account deficits.
