China has emphasized the 'Two-State Solution' supporting the establishment of an independent Palestinian state as the resolution to the Israel-Palestine issue.

Earlier, President Xi Jinping stated at the BRICS special summit held via video conference on the 21st, "The root cause of the conflict between Israel and Palestine is that the rights of the Palestinians have long been neglected and ignored," proposing the 'Two-State Solution' and the establishment of an independent Palestinian state as the solution.
