There is no truth in the news being circulated on social media that Confucius Centres across Pakistan have been closed after the Karachi incident last month.

A spokesperson of the Chinese embassy in Islamabad on Tuesday said all the Confucius Institutes in Pakistan were operational and none of them has been shut down.

While responding to the news being circulated all the teaching activities at various Confucius Institutes and Confucius Classrooms in Pakistan would be carried out through online or offline ways by the Chinese and Pakistani teachers and the partnering universities of China.

On April 26, at least four people including three Chinese nationals were killed while four others were injured in a suicide attack outside the University of Karachi’s Confucius Institute.

The spokesperson said after discussions with the concerned departments of Pakistan, some Chinese teachers had returned to China for the upcoming summer vacation and would, as per request, return at an appropriate time.

In the meantime, she said, the Chinese side planned to provide more quality teaching resources to meet the needs of the Pakistani students to learn the Chinese language.
