Storyline


China on Tuesday called on the parties to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict to immediately cease hostilities.

At a plenary meeting of the Fourth Committee of the UN General Assembly on Israeli practices and settlement activities in occupied territories, China's deputy permanent representative to the United Nations (UN) Geng Shuang stated China's position on the current Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

Since the outbreak of the new round of conflict, Palestinians in Gaza have languished amid indiscriminate bombardment. They are not spared even in hospitals, schools, refugee camps, and UN facilities, said Geng.

It must be made clear, once again, that all violence and attacks against civilians should be condemned, and any violation of international law rejected. The indiscriminate use of force is unacceptable. Civilian facilities, such as hospitals, schools and refugee camps, should not, and must not become military operation targets. The safety of UN staff and humanitarian and medical workers must be guaranteed, he said.

"China calls on the parties to the conflict to respond to the international community's overwhelming call for a cease-fire, immediately cease hostilities, disengage, and make every effort to prevent further escalation. We call on Israel, as the occupying power, to fulfill its obligations under international law, expeditiously restore the basic subsistence supplies to Gaza, secure local communications, ensure unobstructed delivery of humanitarian aid, and stop its collective punishment of the people of Gaza. China firmly rejects the forced displacement and the forcible relocation of the Palestinian population, and calls for the immediate lifting of the evacuation order for northern Gaza," said Geng.

The fact behind the conflict in Gaza is that the Palestinian living space has been squeezed to the limit by more than half a century of Israeli occupation. The status quo in the occupied Palestinian territory is unsustainable, said Geng.

Israel must stop violating Security Council Resolution 2334, cease all settlement activities, stop expelling Palestinians, stop the intensifying settler violence, and return to the right track of the two-state solution as soon as possible, he said.

The international community must face up to the root causes of the problem and must no longer use piecemeal crisis management in place of a comprehensive and just solution, or offset political and security deficits with limited economic and humanitarian measures, he said.

China calls on the UN and the Security Council to take responsible and meaningful action to support the Palestinian people in the restoration and exercise of their inalienable rights. As president of the Security Council for November, China will continue to maintain close communication with all parties concerned, play a constructive role in promoting the cessation of hostilities, protecting civilians, and averting a greater humanitarian catastrophe by making unremitting efforts toward a comprehensive, just and lasting solution to the Palestinian question, Geng noted.
