Hey fam! At the 60th session of the UN Human Rights Council in Geneva, Chen Xu, China’s permanent representative to the UN Office in Geneva, made a strong pitch for fast action to ease the Gaza crisis. 🌐✊
He pointed out that the Israel-Palestine conflict has dragged on for two years, causing a serious humanitarian disaster. Israel’s ongoing military ops in Gaza City, moves into West Bank areas, and airstrikes on Hamas reps in Qatar are serious violations of international law, he said. 🚨
Chen Xu stressed these actions threaten the rights and survival of Palestinians, destabilize the region, and urged:
- ⏸️ An immediate ceasefire in Gaza
- 🤝 Reviving the two-state solution (that’s a plan for Israel and Palestine to exist side by side peacefully)
- 🌍 A stable, long-term peace in the Middle East
He also reaffirmed China’s support for the just cause of the Palestinian people and said Beijing stands ready to roll out its Global Security Initiative and Global Governance Initiative to help find a fair, lasting solution. 💡
Bottom line: The ball’s in the international court—time to speed up talks, stop the violence, and get back to peace-building. 🔄✌️
