Khan called the President XI on the last day of a four-day visit to China to discuss a number of problems including the slow pace of China-Pakistan's economic corridor (CPEC) and increased concerns of Beijing for recurrent attacks on Chinese personnel who worked on various projects in Pakistan.

In his meeting with Khan, XI said China strongly supported Pakistan in protecting national independence, sovereignty, dignity, and terrorism struggling, reporting the Xinhua news agency managed by the government.

"We firmly opposed every effort by other countries to change the status quo in illegally occupied areas by Pakistan also with Pakistan which raises any material change in the Indian region under the occupation illegally. We call the parties who care to stop This action, "he said.
