China is cheering on the recent ceasefire between India and Pakistan! On May 10, both neighboring nations agreed to pause the conflict and set up further talks scheduled for May 12. Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Lin Jian highlighted that this step is a win for regional peace and stability.
Lin emphasized that the ceasefire is not just a break in hostilities, but a chance to build a lasting environment of calm and dialogue. "Consolidate and extend the ceasefire momentum," he urged, encouraging India and Pakistan to handle their differences through discussion rather than conflict.
In an effort to keep the positive vibes flowing, Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi held productive phone calls on May 10 with Pakistan's Mohammad Ishaq Dar and India's Ajit Doval. These talks aimed to promote de-escalation and further the journey toward a comprehensive, lasting peace. 😊
Much like a well-coordinated team maintaining focus to win the game, India and Pakistan are encouraged to continue negotiating with a spirit of mutual respect and commitment. With continuous dialogue, there is hope that the two neighbors can steer back toward enduring political settlement and long-term harmony.
