Amidst the ongoing and devastating conflict between Israel and Palestine, which has tragically claimed over 90,000 lives, China has emerged as a proactive advocate for peace, emphasizing the urgent need for a ceasefire and the delivery of humanitarian aid to the affected regions. Deng Li's recent article outlines China's multifaceted approach to addressing the crisis and underscores the nation's commitment to a just and lasting solution.

Following the deadly outbreak of violence initiated by Hamas on October 7, 2023, and Israel's fierce retaliation, the international community, led by China, is pushing for immediate peace measures. Chinese President Xi Jinping's speech at the BRICS meeting highlights this, calling for an immediate ceasefire, secure humanitarian passages, and a steadfast commitment to the two-state solution as the path forward.

Under President Xi's guidance, China has not only called for peace but actively participated in diplomatic efforts to de-escalate the situation. Foreign Minister Wang Yi's engagements with global leaders, and the special envoy's peace missions, illustrate China's dedication to fostering peace. Moreover, China's presidency of the U.N. Security Council in November saw significant steps toward peace, including the adoption of a pivotal resolution and the submission of a comprehensive position paper aimed at resolving the conflict.

The international community has lauded China's just and balanced stance on the Palestine-Israel issue, recognizing its efforts as crucial to the peace process. China's advocacy for the two-state solution and its call for immediate ceasefire measures are seen as pivotal contributions to the quest for lasting peace in the region.

China's historical support for Palestine's independence and rights, alongside its active role in Middle East peace efforts, reflects its commitment to justice and international law. With proposals aimed at reviving peace talks and ensuring mutual coexistence, China stands firm in its resolve to assist in resolving the Palestinian question.

As the conflict continues to impact the lives of thousands, China's unwavering support for peace, dialogue, and humanitarian assistance shines as a beacon of hope. With a focus on justice, the restoration of national rights, and the implementation of the two-state solution, China is dedicated to contributing positively to the peace process.
