Asif Ali Zardari, the president, is likely to go to China this week.

Sources close to the situation say that President Asif Ali Zardari will make an official trip to China later this week.

The last steps of getting ready for the visit are now being taken, and they should be done in the next several days. President Zardari is anticipated to meet with high-ranking Chinese officials during the trip to talk about things that are important to both countries.

Sources say that the visit is even more important now because of recent events in the area, including Pakistan’s efforts to mediate between Iran and the US. The president is anticipated to tell Chinese officials about Islamabad’s diplomatic efforts and keep them up to date on the continuing mediation efforts.

During the visit, important talks will focus on the changing circumstances in the area and how to improve relations between Pakistan and China even more.

Sources further say that Bilawal Bhutto Zardari will probably go with the president on the trip.

Soon, further information about the visit’s schedule and agenda should be made public.
