China's Growing Role in Resolving the Israel-Palestine Conflict

Chinese President Xi Jinping, in his first public speech on the Israel-Gaza conflict, reiterated China's support for a two-state solution and called for a ceasefire. He emphasized the need for a just solution to the question of Palestine and the establishment of an independent Palestinian state. Xi also urged the international community to convene an international conference to build consensus for peace. China has provided humanitarian assistance to Gaza and called for secure humanitarian corridors and increased aid. China's stance aligns with its strategy to deepen alliances with non-Western multilateral groups and strengthen ties with the Global South.
