In his conversation with Mr. Wang, Riyad Al-Maliki, foreign affairs minister for the Palestinian Authority in the West Bank, “expressed heartfelt thanks to the Chinese side for upholding justice, making a clear and strong statement, standing firmly with the Palestinian people, and providing emergency humanitarian assistance to the Palestinian side,” Chinese state media reported.
Beijing’s influence in Israel, meanwhile, has been damaged by China’s initial response to the Hamas attacks earlier this month, which focused more on Israel’s retaliation than the harm done to Israeli civilians. “We have a lot of challenges in the U.S.-China relationship, we do not have identical views on this particular position,” Mr. Burns said, noting China’s support for a two-state solution was out of step with Hamas’ position, which “supports the destruction of the state of Israel.”Craig Singleton, China program deputy director at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies, a Washington D.C.
