China Steps Up as Mediator in Palestinian Unity Talks
In a move signaling growing diplomatic influence, China has offered to host renewed talks between rival Palestinian factions Fatah and Hamas this weekend. The Chinese Foreign Ministry confirmed its readiness to be a \"platform for dialogue\" following April's groundbreaking Beijing meetings that saw progress toward reconciliation.
🗣️ Foreign Ministry spokesperson Lin Jian told reporters Tuesday: \"We welcome Palestinian groups to use China’s platform for in-depth communication. Strengthening unity through dialogue aligns with the fundamental interests of the Palestinian people.\"
This comes after April's sit-down where both factions:
💬 Held \"candid\" discussions on power-sharing
🤝 Agreed on future dialogue frameworks
🙏 Praised China's role in their independence efforts
While details remain under wraps, insiders say the meetings could address Gaza reconstruction and joint governance models. The development follows China's expanding Middle East diplomacy, recently mediating between Saudi Arabia and Iran too.
