As tensions in Gaza escalate, China is stepping up its call for diplomacy over destruction. At a press briefing Monday, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Guo Jiakun delivered a clear message: “Force cannot bring peace, and violence cannot deliver security.” 🔥🚫
Ceasefire Now, Reconstruction Next
Guo stressed that ending the Palestinian-Israeli conflict is a global priority, urging influential nations to push Israel toward de-escalation. “Countries with special influence over Israel should take real responsibility,” he said, highlighting the urgent need to address Gaza’s humanitarian crisis.
Two-State Solution or Bust
Reiterating China’s long-standing stance, Guo emphasized support for Palestinian self-governance and reconstruction post-conflict. “The principle of ‘Palestinians governing Palestine’ must be implemented,” he added, while opposing unilateral actions that threaten the two-state framework.
Global Youth Take Note
With over 70% of Gaza’s population under 30, the crisis hits close to home for young audiences worldwide. China’s push for dialogue—not drones—resonates as Gen Z demands accountability from global leaders. 💬✨
