Q: Tensions between India and Pakistan continue to escalate. Pakistan said India hit targets including the Nur Khan air base on the early morning of May 10. Pakistan has vowed to resolutely strike back and launched “Operation Bunyan-ul-Marsoos.” What’s China’s comment?
A: China is closely following the ongoing situation between India and Pakistan and is deeply concerned about the escalation. We strongly urge both sides to act in the larger interest of peace and stability, exercise calm and restraint, return to the track of political settlement through peaceful means, and refrain from any action that could further escalate tension. This will be important for the fundamental interest of both India and Pakistan, and for a stable and peaceful region. This is also what the international community hopes to see. China is willing to continue to play a constructive role to this end.
