China and Pakistan might be plotting to make a new bio-weapon, which could be deadlier than the coronavirus, suggests a report of an Australian portal, The Clauson
According to the report, these deadly bioweapons are being made in Pakistan on the instructions of the Communist Party of China.
The Defense Science and Technology Organization (Desto), working under the Wuhan Institute of Virology and the Pakistan Army, is working on making this new virus strain, the report said
The lab in Pakistan where it is being developed has Bio-Safety Level-4, that is, lethal strains can be made in this lab, and it can spread fast.
Meanwhile, there is a lockdown in most parts of China due to increasing cases of Covid 19. People are locked inside homes, longing for food and medicines.
At the same time, experts say that if the international community does not stop this joint program between China and Pakistan soon, many deadly virus strains will spread, which will prove to be fatal for the world.
Meanwhile, Pakistan’s new government has initiated a process to abolish the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor Authority, with the planning minister saying it was a “redundant organisation” that wasted resources and thwarted speedy implementation of the ambitious regional connectivity programme.
Planning Minister Ahsan Iqbal passed orders to the concerned officials to begin the process of abolition of the authority following reports that Chinese power producers have shut down 1,980 megawatts of production capacity due to non-clearance of their Rs300 billion dues, The Express Tribune newspaper reported.
The China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) Authority established through an ordinance in 2019 was aimed at accelerating the pace of CPEC-related activities, finding new drivers of growth, unlocking the potential of interlinked production networks and global value chains through regional and global connectivity.
According to the newly appointed planning minister, his officials “will move a summary seeking Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif’s approval to abolish the CPEC Authority”.
