In a high-energy session at the United Nations in New York, China's Special Envoy on the Middle Eastern Issue, Zhai Jun, rallied the international community to take concrete steps toward a lasting peace between Israel and Palestine. 🕊️
Zhai stressed that the immediate priority must be a full ceasefire in Gaza to ease the humanitarian crisis and lay the foundation for a viable two-state solution. His vision calls for the establishment of an independent Palestinian state based on the 1967 borders, with East Jerusalem as its capital, enjoying full sovereignty.
He warned that any attempt to alter Gaza's status or infringe on West Bank territory will only spark further instability and undermine progress. Emphasizing the importance of "Palestinians governing Palestinians," Zhai also highlighted the need to boost Palestinian unity and strengthen their governance and economic resilience.
Furthermore, the envoy underlined that regional security is a shared goal—only a cooperative and comprehensive approach can secure enduring peace for all involved. His clear call for a timeline and roadmap for the two-state solution underscores China's commitment to global collaboration for harmony in the Middle East.
This energetic appeal reminds us that meaningful change demands unity and decisive action from the international community. ✨
