It’s like watching a bad sequel to Star Wars. Pakistan’s Prime Minister’s Office’s announcement about Foreign Minister Shehbaz Sharif’s planned visit to China for the “launch” of the second phase of the China Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) was lukewarm, listing June 4 as a date that is “subject to slight change.” In other words, Beijing has yet to confirm the date.
