ISLAMABAD: China has rejected speculations that it is planning to establish a military base in Gwadar area of Balochistan.

According to reports, briefing the reporters in Beijing, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Lu Kang termed the media reports in this connection as unnecessary speculations.

The Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman said he doesn't think it is necessary for the outside world to make too much guesses in this regard. –PPI
