Chinese President Xi Jinping, who arrived in Pakistan yesterday on a two-day state visit, has described the nation's military offensive against militants in North Waziristan as a "game changer" in ushering in peace to the region.
During his meeting with Services Chiefs of Pakistan's armed forces on Monday evening, Jinping noted that Operation Zarb-e-Azb had yielded "remarkable results" which, in turn, would also contribute to Pakistan's economic growth, reported The Express Tribune.
While lauding Pakistan's "strenuous efforts" towards tackling the problem of terrorism to promote peace, stability in the region, Jinping vowed to stand by the nation in all its endeavours and to continue to support it in its fight against terrorism.
The Chinese leader arrived at the Prime Minister House after receiving a grand welcome at the Islamabad airport. He is expected to sign a number of important agreements and MoUs worth 46 billion dollars.
