China's Foreign Minister says admitting Palestinian state to UN is move to rectify injustice

BEIJING, Sunday, April 21, 2024 (WAFA) – Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi has confirmed that efforts to admit the State of Palestine into the United Nations were a move to rectify a prolonged injustice, state media Xinhua reported.

He made the comments at a joint press conference with his Papua New Guinea counterpart during a visit to the country.

The United States on Thursday effectively stopped the UN from recognizing a Palestinian state by casting a veto in the Security Council to deny Palestinians full membership of the world body.

"A prompt admission of Palestine into the United Nations is a move to rectify a prolonged historical injustice," Xinhua quoted Wang as saying.
