- China's foreign ministry spokeswoman says Beijing's position on the Middle East is to promote stability through an immediate cease-fire and ending violence By Anadolu Staff ANKARA (AA) - China on Monday called for a cease-fire and an end to violence in the Middle East to restore stability in the region. China's Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Mao Ning stated that Beijing's position on the Middle East is to promote stability through an immediate cease-fire, ending violence, alleviating the humanitarian crisis, and pursuing a political solution through dialogue and negotiation, Global Times reported. Responding to a question about China's role in fostering peace in the region, Mao said that over the past year, China has actively contributed to peace efforts. These include facilitating the UN Security Council's first resolution on a cease-fire in Gaza, supporting Palestinian reconciliation and the signing of the Beijing Declaration, and providing humanitarian aid to Gaza. "China advocates for Lebanon in multilateral forums, advances Saudi-Iranian reconciliation, and encourages regional countries to resolve differences through inclusiveness, cooperation, and mutual trust," she added. On Saturday, following a meeting with his Iranian counterpart Abbas Araghchi in Beijing, China's Foreign Minister Wang Yi stated that the Middle East belongs to its people and should not serve as a "battleground for big power games" or a victim of geopolitical rivalries. Wang and Araghchi also underscored the importance of addressing the Palestinian issue by respecting and restoring the legitimate rights of the Palestinian people and ending the occupation. *Writing by Islamuddin Sajid
