China is closely monitoring the developments between Lebanon and Israel and has welcomed the ceasefire agreement reached by the concerned parties, a Chinese foreign ministry spokesperson stated on Wednesday.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced on Tuesday that the Israeli security cabinet approved a ceasefire in Lebanon, a move welcomed by the Lebanese government.
Responding to questions about China’s stance, spokesperson Mao Ning emphasized that China has consistently urged all parties to adhere to UN Security Council Resolution 1701.
Mao expressed China’s support for any measures that help ease tensions and foster peace, praising the ceasefire agreement as a positive step.
However, Mao noted that the unresolved ceasefire in Gaza remains the core issue fueling instability in the Middle East. She urged all parties to collaborate for an immediate and sustainable ceasefire in Gaza.
