“China continues to support Pakistan’s flood relief efforts. Today, the first shipment of flood relief supplies via Khunjrab was transported to Great Britain.
I would like to express my gratitude to the Xinjiang leadership for this kind and timely assistance,” he wrote in a tweet.
Luo Zhaohui, the chairman of China’s International Development Cooperation Agency, has pledged an additional RMB 300 million in aid for Pakistan’s flood victims.
