China's foreign minister tells Israel to stop West Bank settlement expansion during Azerbaijan meeting

Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi met with Israeli President Isaac Herzog on the sidelines of a conference in Baku, Azerbaijan, and urged Israel to stop and reverse the forced establishment of West Bank settlements. Wang stated that China views the Palestinian question as the greatest historical injustice of this century and emphasized the two-state solution as the correct path forward. Wang also called for full humanitarian access to Gaza and a return to dialogue for a political settlement.
