China has already offered $1 million dollars in cash as well as 30 million yuan in humanitarian aid to Pakistan to help with the relocation of civilians displaced in recent months as the Pakistani army and police continue to fight terrorists and extremists.

Hu and Zardari are in Yekaterinburg to attend the SCO summit. Pakistan is an observer nation.

China is willing to help the Pakistani government tackle its current challenges and maintain social stability, Hu said.

China appreciates Pakistan's support on issues concerning China's national security and interests and is willing to work with the international community in tackling the threat and challenges of terrorism, Hu said.

The China-Pakistan friendship will grow more solid regardless of how international or domestic situations evolve, Hu said.
