"We have also called on all parties concerned in the international community to objectively and justly view and evaluate Pakistan's efforts in the field of international anti-terrorism instead of accusing Pakistan of bias with prejudice," he added.

Lu Kang remarked that as an all-weather strategic partner of Pakistan, China would continue to strengthen its communication and coordination and cooperation with Pakistan on the anti-terrorism issue.

To yet another question regarding China's support to Pakistan during the recent Financial Action Task Force (FATF) meeting, he said that China appraised Pakistan's efforts and contributions in the field of international anti-terrorism, adding, "As I said just now, I will not repeat the above."
