Amid indications that Pakistan was seeking an atomic agreement with China on the lines of the
Indo-US nuclear pact, President Asif Ali Zardari will visit Beijing next week for talks with the Chinese leadership to strengthen their “all-weather” bilateral ties.
“As a guest of Chinese President Hu Jintao, Zardari will pay a state visit to China from October 14 to 17,” Chinese foreign ministry spokesman Qin Gang announced here.
