China's permanent UN representative Fu Cong stressed that Security Council resolutions are "binding for all states" during a briefing on Gaza's humanitarian crisis. With the conflict worsening since October 2023, Fu warned against "distortion or interpretation" of international law, calling for urgent action to save lives.
⚖️ Diplomatic Deadlock
Despite U.S. ceasefire efforts in May, Fu criticized stalled diplomacy, stating it led to "reckless military adventurism" and rising civilian casualties. He emphasized that international humanitarian law must not be used as a "bargaining chip" and urged an end to double standards.
🚨 Restoring Faith in the UN
Fu highlighted the Security Council's "marginalization," urging members to prioritize impartiality and leverage all tools to halt the war. "We cannot lose faith in genuine diplomacy," he said, demanding political will to "restore peace as soon as possible."
