Zhang Jun pointed out that we must resolutely oppose violence and violent incitement, and effectively uphold international law. For a period of time, the situation on the ground between Palestine and Israel has been feverish and negative, with a continuous escalation of the cycle of violence, resulting in a large number of civilian casualties. China is deeply concerned about this. China condemns all violence against civilians, killings and violations against children, and opposes the excessive use of force by security forces. All parties involved must maintain calm and restraint, and the occupying party should effectively fulfill its international legal obligations and ensure the safety of the people and property in the occupied territories.

Zhang Jun said that the brutal expansion of settlements continues to change the status quo of occupied territories, violates international law and Security Council resolutions, and further exacerbates the conflict between Palestine and Israel. China strongly urges the cessation of all settlement activities and the containment of escalating settler violence. The Holy Land of Jerusalem is related to the religious emotions of its followers. It must firmly oppose irresponsible provocation and incitement, truly respect the historical status of the Holy Land, and respect Jordan's jurisdiction over the Holy Land.
Zhang Jun stated that we need to promote economic development and effectively safeguard people's livelihoods. China calls on Israel to relax and lift unreasonable restrictions on the movement of people and goods, as well as land use in the occupied territories, to create conditions for the development of Palestinian communities in the West Bank of the Jordan River, and to lift the blockade on the Gaza Strip as soon as possible. China calls on the international community to pay attention to and support the economic and livelihood needs of Palestine, provide humanitarian assistance, and help alleviate the financial crisis on the Palestinian side.
Zhang Jun emphasized the need to fulfill international commitments and effectively promote the "two country plan". The international community must prioritize the issue of Palestine on the international agenda, and the United Nations and the Security Council must take strong action to advance the "two-state solution" with an urgent sense of urgency, shoulder the responsibilities assigned by the United Nations Charter, and effectively uphold fairness and justice.

Zhang Jun said that China welcomes the recent trilateral summit between Egypt, Jordan, and Palestine, supports the convening of a larger, more authoritative, and influential international peace conference, and creates conditions for the resumption of peace talks. China is willing to continue to work with the international community to make unremitting efforts to achieve a comprehensive, just and lasting solution to the Palestinian issue as soon as possible and promote lasting peace and stability in the Middle East region.
