Beijing, June 24 /Xin Hua/ — Normal navigation through the Strait of Hormuz should be restored as soon as possible to ensure the stability of global production and supply chains. This was stated by China’s Foreign Minister Wang Yi on Wednesday.
Van Yi, who is also a member of the Politburo of the CPC Central Committee, made a corresponding statement during a phone conversation with the Deputy Prime Minister, Minister of Foreign Affairs of Pakistan, Makhdoom Shah Mahmood Qureshi.
During the talks, Van I thanked the Pakistani side for promptly informing China about the new phase of negotiations between Iran and the USA. According to him, the signing of the memorandum of understanding between these two countries was the result of joint efforts of the international community, and Pakistan played a key and unique role in this.
The peace process has only just begun, and ahead lies a long, even winding and difficult path, noted the head of the MFA of the PRC, emphasizing that China will, as before, support Pakistan and other countries with similar positions in their constructive roles, ready to maintain close communication and coordination with the Pakistani side.
Van I designated three key priorities for the next stage.
First of all, he stated, it is necessary to firmly establish a comprehensive ceasefire and halt the war, and under no circumstances should any resumption of hostilities be allowed.
The Iran-American memorandum of understanding corresponds to the fundamental and long-term interests of Iran, as well as to the common expectations of the international community, emphasized the head of the Chinese foreign affairs department, adding that China is ready to resolutely support negotiations and facilitate their continuation together with all parties, regardless of location.
Second, the head of MID KN continued that normal shipping through the Strait of Hormuz should be restored as soon as possible to ensure the stability of global production and supply chains. Agreements concerning the strait must respect the sovereignty and legal rights and interests of the coastal states, while conforming to international practice and the common expectations of all countries, he added.
In the third, a Chinese diplomat indicated that it is necessary to make efforts to support Middle Eastern countries in the prompt improvement of relations between them and in the development of a new architecture of regional security.
The root of the Middle East problem remains in the Palestinian issue, emphasized by Van Eyck, who called on the countries of the region to act more cohesively and undertake more coordinated actions in its resolution, so as to implement as soon as possible the principle of “two states for two peoples,” achieving sustainable peace and stability in the region. –0–
