A top Chinese diplomat emphasized China’s relationship with Hamas during the first meeting between a Chinese official and a Hamas leader since the terrorist group’s Oct. 7 attack on Israel.
China’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs envoy, Wang Kejian, met with the head of Hamas’s political bureau, Ismail Haniyeh, in Qatar on Sunday. Wang said the Chinese government is keen on maintaining relations with Hamas, describing the organization as “part of the Palestinian national fabric” and advocating for “the Palestinian people’s just demands for freedom, independence, and the establishment of the Palestinian state,” according to a Tuesday statement by Hamas.
“The two parties discussed political and field developments related to the situation in the Gaza Strip and ways to stop the war and deliver urgent aid, especially in light of the killing, starvation, massacres, and attempts to create chaos,” Hamas added in the statement.
The Middle East Media Research Institute (MEMRI) provided details on the meeting between the Chinese and Hamas officials.
MEMRI reported that Kejian “stressed the close and historical relations between the Palestinian and Chinese peoples, as well as China’s unwavering positions on the Palestinian issue and its support of the Palestinian people’s just demands for freedom, independence and the establishment of the Palestinian state.” He [too] called to stop the war, end the killing of the Palestinians and meet their humanitarian needs. The statement noted that he “emphasized that the Hamas movement is part of the Palestinian national fabric and that China is acting to preserve the relations with it.”
MEMRI also pointed out that following the deadly October 7, 2023 attack by Hamas against Israel, China has aligned itself with the Palestinians and Hamas.
MEMRI also noted that in February, Chinese representative Ma Xinmin appeared to justify the massacre, and claimed, “The violence on the part of the Palestinians against Israel is not terrorism but legitimate armed struggle.”
