China criticizes US for obstructing cease-fire in Gaza
November 26, 2024A spokesman for the Chinese Foreign Ministry in a regular press conference on November 22 censured the US for having obstructed the adoption of the UNSC’s resolution on cease-fire in the Gaza Strip.
The conflict persisting in Gaza has entailed over 40 000 deaths and unprecedented humanitarian disasters, he said, adding that the recent resolution reflected strong voices of the international community for peace.
He said that the US alone exercised veto several times to hinder the adoption of resolutions on cease-fire in the region, thus bringing the efforts of the UNSC and the international community back into stagnation.
He urged the US to abandon political calculation and stop selective practices of neglecting international law and international humanitarian law.
