At a high-level UN Security Council meeting on Tuesday, Geng Shuang, China’s deputy permanent representative to the United Nations, stressed the urgent need to resolve the Palestinian question that has driven turmoil in the Middle East for over 70 years.
Noting that the Palestinian issue remains central to regional peace and stability, Geng highlighted that several Western countries have recently recognized Palestinian statehood. He urged the international community to build on this momentum and revitalize prospects for a two-state solution.
A two-state solution, Geng explained, offers the only viable way forward. He called for support to establish an independent Palestinian state at the earliest opportunity and to grant it full United Nations membership.
For young global citizens, businesses, and tech innovators, a stable Middle East can open markets, foster collaboration, and drive sustainable growth. Thought leaders and changemakers will watch how international cooperation shapes the next chapter of this decades-long story.
As diplomats navigate complex geopolitics, maintaining unity and fresh momentum could be the key to turning a seven-decade impasse into a breakthrough for peace and shared progress.
