Zamir Assadi said that the global politics was shaping in South China Sea specially the recent incident of Nancy Pelosi's visit to Taiwan.
He was of the view that US scrapped three joint communiques which were singed between US and China and it put pressure on developing countries who had working relations with Beijing.

Ramay said that Beijing was globally helping nations to grow, adding it was ending food insecurity in regions like Africa.

He said that China's security had taken a paradigm shift from territorial security to individual security which was centered on assuring security to every Chinese individual.
Dr. Zafar Nawaz Jaspal said that when canons in Ukraine were fired it left a whole mark on world and Pakistan also faced it.
