On November 2, 2023, Member of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee and Foreign Minister Wang Yi had a phone call with Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates of Jordan Ayman Safadi.

Wang Yi said, China strongly condemns attacks on refugee camps in the Gaza Strip. The lives of Palestinian and Israeli people are equally important, and there should be no double standards, and the humanitarian disaster should not continue.

Wang Yi stressed that China appreciates Jordan's long-term efforts in actively promoting Palestine-Israel peace talks and proposing the draft resolution of the UN General Assembly on the Palestine-Israel conflict on behalf of Arab countries. China supports the Arab states' important proposal for a ceasefire and the maintenance of peace. As the rotating presidency of the Security Council this month, China is ready to keep close communication and coordination with all parties and make all-out efforts to build consensus in the Security Council to cool down the situation as soon as possible. First of all, all parties need to work toward a ceasefire and ensure unimpeded humanitarian rescue and assistance passage. Meanwhile, a more authoritative international peace conference should be convened as soon as possible to reach a new consensus on restarting and implementing the two-state solution, and formulate a specific timetable and roadmap.

Ayman Safadi thanked China for upholding fairness and justice on the Palestinian question and supporting the adoption of the resolution at an emergency special session of the UN General Assembly. Peace is the only option, and Jordan condemns all acts that harm civilians, and calls for an early ceasefire and delivery of humanitarian relief supplies to Gaza. Jordan is willing to work with China to promote the implementation of the two-state solution and safeguard regional peace and stability.
