Summary

Machine summary

CMC Vice Chairman Zhang Shengmin met in Beijing on the 26th with Pakistani Army Chief General Asim Munir, with both sides emphasizing deepened defense and security cooperation and mutual support on core interests. The meeting documents the routine high-level military diplomacy channel between China and Pakistan, but Munir's explicit commitment to deepen 'defense and security' cooperation—paired with Zhang's invocation of 'practical cooperation' and coordination on 'international and regional affairs'—extends the public record of bilateral military alignment at a moment of elevated regional tension involving India.
