Islamabad: Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif Wednesday accused his predecessor Imran Khan of not only halting progress on the USD 60 billion China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) but also damaging ties with ‘all-weather ally’ China.
Addressing a ceremony here to mark a decade of the signing of the CPEC, Sharif also said that the mega project helped Pakistan progress in the region and the world.
“The CPEC is all about a story of hard work and untiring commitment between the leadership of Pakistan and China,” he was quoted as saying by the state-run APP news agency.
