The policy was based on the principles of respect for unity, sovereignty, territorial integrity and non-interference in internal affairs, she said during the question-hour session of the National Assembly on Thursday.
Responding to a question of Syed Asif Hasnain, the State Minister said that friendship with China was the cornerstone of Pakistan's foreign policy, adding "Pakistan considers China to be a factor of stability in the region and beyond."
She said both the countries had developed a comprehensive framework for sustained development of economic and trade relations. Bilateral trade between the two countries was over 8 billion dollars and both sides were committed to achieving a trade target of 15 billion dollars by 2015.
Hina said exchange of high-level visits was the hallmark of Pakistan's relations with China, which was evident that President Asif Ali Zardari visited the friendly country six times and Prime Minister Syed Yusuf Raza Gilani thrice since resuming their offices.
Commenting on ties with Afghanistan, she said Pakistan was enjoying friendly relations with it. "The relations have undergone major transformation under the democratic government in Pakistan. As a result, mutual trust and confidence are at a high level," she said.
Regarding Iran, the Minister said Pakistan had traditionally maintained good neighbourly and cordial relations with it over the last six decades.
She said the volume of bilateral trade between the two countries had reached around one billion dollars per annum.
Pakistan and Iran had a joint trade commission mechanism to discuss trade related issues and consider ways and means to enhance the current volume of trade, which was far below the actual potential, Hina Rabbani Khar said.
About India, the Minister of State for Foreign Affairs said recently, Foreign Secretaries of Pakistan and India met on the sidelines of 33rd Session of SAARC (South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation) Council of Ministers on Feb 6 this year in Thimphu, Bhutan and decided to resume the dialogue process.
"This has served to reduce trust deficit and the two countries agreed to resume full spectrum dialogue on all issues," she said.
She also informed that it was agreed to hold secretary level meetings on all segments of the previous 'Composite Dialogue' adding that Pakistan's Foreign Minister would visit India by July this year to review the progress on all issues.
