China expressed its praise and support for “efforts aimed at reducing tensions between Palestine and Israel,” according to the spokesperson for the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs on Tuesday, following Donald Trump’s announcement of his plan to end the war in Gaza.

During the regular press briefing, Zhao Lijian said, “We call on all relevant parties to fully implement the relevant United Nations resolutions and immediately reach a comprehensive ceasefire in Gaza, release all detainees, and alleviate the humanitarian crisis as soon as possible,” reaffirming China’s support for the two-state solution.
