Chinese President Xi Jinping is expected to visit Pakistan in February to discuss bilateral relations and inaugurate projects in the country being run with Chinese cooperation.

According to reports, Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi will come to Pakistan first to finalise security and schedule ahead of Xi’s visit.

The Chinese president was scheduled to visit Pakistan in mid-September last year but the visit was postponed due to Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf’s (PTI) sit-in protest in Islamabad against alleged election rigging.

The government claimed that investment agreements worth $34 billion had been expected to be finalized during Xi’s stay in Pakistan.
