Economic Observation Network According to the website of the Ministry of Commerce, on October 15, 2026 local time, Wang Yi, member of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China Central Committee and Foreign Minister, met with Palestinian Foreign Minister Farsin during his attendance at the Asia Pacific Summit in Baku.

Wang Yi stated that China was one of the earliest countries to recognize Palestine. China and Pakistan are good friends and brothers, and both sides have inherited decades of friendship. No matter how the international situation changes, the Chinese people will always stand with the Palestinian people and firmly support their just cause of striving to restore their legitimate national rights. At present, the strategic partnership between China and Pakistan maintains a momentum of development, and China is willing to further enhance strategic mutual trust with Pakistan and promote the development of bilateral relations.

Wang Yi said that the Palestinian issue is the longest running hot topic and the biggest historical injustice in the world since World War II. If this issue cannot be fairly resolved, the Middle East will not be able to achieve lasting peace and stability. The current situation in the Middle East remains tense, bringing new difficulties to resolving the Palestinian issue. The Palestinian issue should not be marginalized, and the world cannot forget the 2 million Palestinian people struggling on the brink of death in Gaza. Justice may be late, but it will never be absent. As a responsible major country, China will continue to stand on the side of international justice and oppressed nations, and actively speak out for the just cause of Pakistan on the multilateral stage. China will also call on all peace loving countries to firmly support the "two-state solution" and work together to promote a comprehensive, just, and lasting solution to the Palestinian issue at an early date.

Farsin expressed gratitude to China for its strong support in restoring the legitimate national rights of the Palestinian people over the long term, for speaking up for Palestine in international multilateral occasions, and for providing selfless assistance in humanitarian aid to Gaza. Bazhong maintains traditional friendship and both sides cooperate well. The Palestinian side hopes to continuously deepen bilateral relations with the Chinese side, and expects the Chinese side to continue to uphold justice for the Palestinian side on the Palestinian issue and play a more important role in realizing the "two-state solution".
