BEIJING February 21. 2024 (Saba) - China has considered that America's use of its veto power against a draft resolution in the UN Security Council calling for an immediate humanitarian ceasefire in the Gaza Strip would "make the situation more dangerous."
Chinese Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Mao Ning said during a press conference "The United States was once again alone in imposing its veto, making the situation in Gaza more dangerous.
It added that the concerned parties, including China, expressed great disappointment and dissatisfaction."
On Tuesday, the UN Security Council failed again to adopt a draft resolution calling for an end to the Zionist aggression against the Gaza Strip, after the United States used its veto.
Thirteen countries voted in favor of the draft resolution submitted by Algeria on behalf of the Arab Group, while the United Kingdom abstained from voting, and the United States used its “veto” to thwart the resolution.
The draft resolution rejects the forced displacement of the Palestinian civilian population, calls for adherence to international law, and renews its call for full, rapid, safe and unhindered access of humanitarian aid to the Gaza Strip and all its parts and for the provision of sufficient humanitarian aid urgently, continuously and in the appropriate size to Palestinian civilians.
The project reaffirms its firm commitment to the vision of a two-state solution under which the democratic states of Israel and Palestine live side by side in peace and within secure and recognized borders.
The Zionist enemy forces have continued their aggression on land, sea and air against the Gaza Strip since the seventh of last October, which resulted in the martyrdom of 29,195 citizens, the majority of whom were children and women, and the injury of 69,170 others, while thousands of victims are still under the rubble.
