Smoke billows following Israeli strikes amid the ongoing conflict between Israel and the Palestinian Islamist group Hamas, in Gaza on Oct 13.has sparked contrasting reactions from the United States and China, with the ongoing hostilities posing new questions for Beijing’s Middle East policy, said analysts.
Professor Joseph Liow, dean of the College of Humanities, Arts and Social Sciences at Nanyang Technological University, told The Straits Times that China is trying to maintain a delicate balancing act between the Palestinians and Israelis. Already, China has faced pressure from the US to do more. In Beijing on Monday, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer urged President Xi Jinping to take a stronger stance on the war, and called for China to use its influence with Iran to stop the conflict from spreading.
On Tuesday, China’s Special Envoy on the Middle East Issue Zhai Jun said China is ready to work with Egypt – which is the first Arab country to sign a peace deal with Israel and had previously helped secure a ceasefire agreement between Israel and Hamas – to end hostilities. Egypt, which shares a border with Gaza, is concerned about a mass exodus of Palestinians into its Sinai peninsula.
Many who support the Palestinian aim for a state have acknowledged that the heinous crimes by Hamas have nothing to do with self-determination, added Ms Witte, who is executive director of the Sino-Israel Global Network and Academic Leadership, an Israel-based think-tank.
