Chinese President Xi Jinping called for urgent international cooperation to address the Palestinian crisis during a UN meeting commemorating the International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People. Emphasizing the need to ‘end the war as soon as possible’, Xi highlighted the importance of implementing UN Security Council resolutions and reigniting the two-state solution as the path to lasting peace. 🌐
Two-State Solution & Political Unity
Xi stressed that Palestine’s right to statehood—with borders based on pre-1967 lines and East Jerusalem as its capital—must be upheld. He praised recent efforts under the Beijing Declaration, urging Palestinian factions to prioritize unity and reconciliation. ‘The question of Palestine is the core of the Middle East issue,’ he said, advocating for a ‘larger, more authoritative’ international peace conference to break the deadlock. 🤝
Humanitarian Support & UN Membership
China pledged continued backing for Palestine’s full UN membership and vowed to support UNRWA’s humanitarian efforts in Gaza. Xi also reaffirmed Beijing’s commitment to an immediate ceasefire, stating, ‘The international community must act now to stop the suffering.’ 🕊️
With Beijing positioning itself as a mediator, Xi’s remarks signal China’s growing diplomatic ambition in global conflicts. Analysts say this could reshape how major powers engage with the Middle East. Stay tuned for updates as tensions escalate. 🔥
