China’s Foreign Minister Wang Yi said Beijing supports Palestine becoming a full membership of the United Nations.
Wang declared support for Palestine’s UN membership at a news conference with his Indonesian counterpart in Jakarta, China’s state-backed digital news outlet The Paper reports.
Wang also said Israel’s war on Gaza had created a humanitarian disaster and an “unconditional ceasefire” should be implemented immediately, the news outlet said.
The UN Security Council is expected to vote on Friday on a Palestinian request for full UN membership, a move that the US – Israel’s staunchest ally – is expected to block.
