, after a meeting with Chinese State Councilor and Foreign Minister Wang Yi, on Wednesday said Beijing had reaffirmed that it was and would always stay a close ally of Pakistain.
Qureshi reached China on Tuesday to attend the third round of talks of the 'Foreign Ministers of Neighbouring Countries of Afghanistan'.
