"Continuously achieving new results in promoting the Pakistan China strategic partnership" China | Palestine | Achievements
"During his talks with Palestinian President Abbas, who is on a state visit to China, President Xi Jinping expressed his consistent and firm support for the just cause of the Palestinian people to restore their legitimate national rights and to promote an early, comprehensive, just and lasting settlement of the Palestinian issue. I deeply appreciate China's consistent and clear position on the Palestinian issue." Abbas Zaki, member of the Central Committee of the Palestinian National Liberation Movement and Minister of Arab Relations and China Affairs, said in an exclusive interview with our reporter a few days ago that Pakistan and China are good friends and partners who trust and support each other. Palestine looks forward to working together with China to continuously gather consensus and create favorable conditions for promoting the settlement of the Palestinian issue.
"For a long time, China has provided tremendous support and selfless help to the just cause of the Palestinian people to restore their legitimate national rights. We are grateful for this." Zaki said that during the talks, President Xi Jinping put forward three propositions on resolving the Palestinian issue, which brought "great encouragement and support" to the Palestinian people ". He said that President Xi Jinping stressed that the fundamental way to solve the Palestinian issue lies in the establishment of an independent Palestinian state based on the 1967 border, with East Jerusalem as its capital and enjoying full sovereignty. "This position demonstrates China's firm support and respect for the legitimate rights and interests of the Palestinian people". President Xi Jinping said that the needs of the Palestinian economy and people's livelihood should be guaranteed, and the international community should increase development assistance and humanitarian assistance to Palestine, this shows that China has always been concerned about Palestinian economic development and people's livelihood needs, and hopes to work with the international community to promote the development of the Palestinian country and the improvement of people's lives; President Xi Jinping also proposed to "promote the convening of a larger, more authoritative, and more influential international peace Conference to create conditions for the resumption of peace talks", which reflects China's continuous efforts to peacefully resolve the Palestinian-Israeli issue and demonstrates the responsibility of a responsible power.
Zaki believes that China calls on the international community to always prioritize the Palestinian issue on the international agenda and to comprehensively, justly, and sustainably resolve the issue. At the beginning of this month, China announced that it would further donate to the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East, which fully reflects China's support for the legitimate rights of the Palestinian people. This year marks the 35th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between Pakistan and China. At this important moment, the two heads of state jointly witnessed the signing of multiple bilateral cooperation documents such as the Economic and Technological Cooperation Agreement, reflecting the determination of both sides to deepen cooperation. Both sides also issued a joint statement on establishing a strategic partnership, marking a new level of traditional friendly relations between the two countries.
Zaki said that the joint statement stressed that the two sides will continue to firmly support each other on issues involving each other's core interests and major concerns, continue to promote cooperation in jointly building the "the Belt and Road", and strengthen coordination and cooperation in regional and international affairs, laying a solid foundation for in-depth cooperation in political, economic, people to people and cultural fields. "Both sides will work together to continuously achieve new results in the Pakistan China strategic partnership, bring more benefits to the two peoples, and make greater contributions to regional peace and stability."
Zaki believes that China's proposals for global development, global security, and global civilization reflect its profound insights and solemn commitment to maintaining global stability, promoting common development, and strengthening cultural exchanges and mutual learning. A series of initiatives by the Chinese side have provided useful ideas for building a world of lasting peace, universal security, common prosperity, openness, inclusiveness, cleanliness, and beauty. Zaki said, "The Palestinian people will continue to cherish their friendship with the Chinese people, strive to promote cooperation between the two sides in various fields, and jointly move towards a better future."
