China urges ceasefire, calls on Israel to stop ‘collective punishment’ in Gaza

In a speech at the UN Security Council on Wednesday, China’s permanent representative to the world body called for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza and the implementation of a two-state solution, while also urging Israel to “cease its collective punishment of the Gaza people”.

  • “Countries with important influence should earnestly make sincere and responsible efforts to promote parties concerned to demonstrate political will and implement relevant Security Council resolutions,” Fu Cong said.
  • Fu also urged Israel to open all land crossings into Gaza to ensure the delivery of humanitarian aid into the besieged enclave, calling the humanitarian disaster “man-made”.
