China says it is worried about the military coup in Pakistan.
China called for restraint right after the military coup in Pakistan, but has yet to formulate a detailed position. Pakistan is a friendly neighbor of China. We are deeply concerned over the change of the situation in Pakistan and we are now trying to further our comprehension of the situation. Ms. Zhang did not say whether the coup will affect what she called normal and friendly relations between China and Pakistan. She also did not indicate whether Beijing would support or recognize any future Pakistani government.
