China Commends Gaza Ceasefire and Advocates for Lasting Peace
China has lauded the commencement of a much-anticipated ceasefire in Gaza, marking a potential end to over 15 months of conflict in the region. The agreement, which came into effect on Sunday, facilitates the exchange of Palestinian detainees and Israeli captives, signaling a step toward de-escalation.
During a routine press conference, Mao Ning, a spokesperson for the Chinese foreign ministry, expressed optimism about the truce. "China welcomes the Gaza ceasefire agreement taking effect. We hope for its full and continuous implementation and aspire to see a comprehensive and permanent resolution in Gaza," she remarked. Mao also reaffirmed China's commitment to collaborating with the global community to advance peace and stability in the Middle East.
China has traditionally supported the Palestinian cause and advocates for a two-state solution to resolve the Israel-Palestine conflict. Unlike some other international actors, China positions itself as a neutral party and has consistently urged for an end to what it identifies as humanitarian crises in Gaza.
In a notable diplomatic move last year, China hosted leaders of rival Palestinian factions in Beijing, facilitating an agreement to establish a "national unity government" in Gaza once hostilities subside. This initiative reflects China's proactive stance in fostering dialogue and reconciliation in the region.
