“China welcomes the Gaza ceasefire deal reached between Israel and Hamas,” Guo said during a press briefing. “We hope all parties will work together to ensure the agreement leads to a permanent and peaceful resolution.”
The ceasefire comes after days of intense conflict that affected countless lives in the Gaza Strip. The international community has been urging for an end to the hostilities, and China’s support adds to the global calls for peace.
Guo highlighted China’s commitment to supporting peace efforts in the Middle East. “We believe that dialogue and negotiation are the keys to resolving disputes,” he stated. “China is ready to work with the international community to help achieve lasting stability in the region.”
The ceasefire agreement has brought a sense of relief to many, but challenges remain. Observers note that for a durable peace, underlying issues must be addressed through sustained diplomatic efforts.
