When writing about the country in a formal Chinese headline, you might see it preceded by 中 (zhōng) if referring to 'China-Pakistan' relations, forming 中巴 (zhōng bā).
In Chinese media, Pakistan is often referred to as the 'all-weather strategic cooperative partner', reflecting an unusually close diplomatic tie compared to other nations.
