China is urging the world to take action for peace and development in the Middle East, highlighting the urgent need to resolve ongoing conflicts that affect millions of people.
On International Holocaust Remembrance Day, China reminded the global community of the tragedies that continue to unfold in places like Gaza, calling for immediate efforts to bring lasting peace to the region.
China’s representatives at the United Nations emphasize that any ceasefire should lead to sustainable peace, not just serve as a temporary halt before more violence erupts.
China has long played a role in advocating for peace in the Middle East. In 2013, it proposed a four-point plan emphasizing the creation of an independent Palestinian state based on the 1967 borders, with East Jerusalem as its capital.
In recent years, China has supported United Nations resolutions calling for immediate ceasefires and the establishment of humanitarian aid corridors to help those affected by conflict.
Believing that development is key to lasting peace, China is working with Middle Eastern countries to rebuild infrastructure, boost economies, and create opportunities for young people through initiatives like the Belt and Road.
Managing relationships with various groups in the Middle East and preventing the spread of nuclear weapons are also important parts of China’s approach to promoting stability in the region.
As global challenges continue to evolve, China remains committed to its consistent stance: promoting peace, encouraging development, and supporting the Middle East in achieving a brighter future.
