China Daily  

By MO JINGXI | China Daily | Updated: 2023-08-15 07:18 China on Monday strongly condemned the terrorist attack on a convoy carrying Chinese engineers to the Gwadar Port in Pakistan, saying that any attempt to undermine the China-Pakistan friendship or the construction of the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor will never succeed. Speaking at a regular news briefing in Beijing, Foreign Ministry spokesman Wang Wenbin said China has asked Pakistan to bring the perpetrators to justice and take measures to ensure the safety of Chinese citizens. "The Chinese side has immediately activated the emergency plan, reminding local Chinese citizens, enterprises and projects to be vigilant, upgrade security measures, prevent security risks, pay close attention to the security situation, and ensure safety," the statement said. The Chinese embassy in Pakistan said in a statement on Sunday that it has requested the Pakistani authorities to conduct a thorough investigation of the attack, severely punish the perpetrators and take concrete and effective measures to prevent similar incidents from happening again.
