Ahead of talks at the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO), President Hu Jintao told his Pakistani counterpart Asif Ali Zardari that China would provide Pakistan with an additional 60 million yuan ($8.82 million).
Hu and Zardari are in Yekaterinburg to attend the SCO summit. Pakistan is an observer nation.
