Um, I am not sure how I feel about this. Why would Xi support a two-state solution? Isn't it more justified to have a one-state solution and return all of the land to the Palestinians? Won't a two-state solution eventually lead us back to another genocide? This feels off. I did not expect Xi to make such a statement.

If one of the poles in our multipolar world pushes for a one state solution, Israel will go THERMONUCLEAR.

Also a one-state solution in the current conditions is going to mean whichever state remains will preside over rubble, and much of West Asia will also be rubble. And that region is a key part in the Belt and Road, which is a driving force in liberating Africa as well as bringing prosperity to the West Asia region.

The two-state option is a win for Palestine in the long run, and China acts with the long run in mind. If the current crisis ends with Gaza and the West Bank not blockaded, occupied nor controlled by Israel, it will become a competition of economies instead of a war of violence. Israel will have the declining fascist-impoverished Western World in its corner, while Palestine will have BRICS+ (or more likely BRCS+) and the Belt And Road in its corner.

All we need is a status quo where Israel can't bomb, bully and murder Palestinians on a whim anymore, and Palestine would leave Israel in the dust in terms of prosperity.

Also, some of the comments in this thread are more than a little irritating. And extremely myopic.

What do people want China to do? Every word that comes out of the Chinese MFA has to be considered in the context of the wider struggle. We're all winning the wider struggle, in large part because they know what they're fucking doing in Beijing - which includes actual material analysis on the consequences of their words and actions and implementing practical, effective policy instead of angry idealist ranting.

Paraphrasing, but: "I understand the material reasons why China says what it says, but I'm still disappointed that they didn't do the worst possible thing they could do instead because it superficially adheres to our principles" is infuriating to read. If you typed something like that, please think about why you typed it.
