On October 27, Foreign Ministry Spokesman Guo Jiakun presided over a regular press conference. A reporter from Pengpai News asked a question. Recently, the situation in the Middle East and Gulf region has changed rapidly. We have noticed that the intensity of the conflict between Yemen and the Red Sea remains high, and there is news that the US and Israel may resume military operations against Iran. What comments does the Chinese side have on this? Guo Jiakun said that China is paying close attention to changes in the situation in the Middle East Gulf, Red Sea, and Horn of Africa region, and is deeply concerned about the delay and spillover effects of the war. He called on all parties concerned to insist on resolving differences through dialogue and negotiations, and achieve a sustainable cease-fire as soon as possible. Guo Jiakun further stated that China has always been committed to persuading peace and promoting talks. In the near future, it will send relevant special envoys to visit countries in these regions to strengthen communication with relevant parties, promote contacts and dialogue among all parties, slow down the situation, and prevent further deterioration of the situation. “China will uphold President Xi Jinping's series of initiatives to promote peace and security in the Middle East region, and work with the international community to make unremitting efforts to promote peace and stability in the relevant regions as soon as possible.”
