China mediates between India, Pakistan during May conflict
“To build lasting peace, we have taken an objective and just stance, focusing on addressing both symptoms and root causes,” Wang said. He cited China’s mediation efforts in northern Myanmar, the Iranian nuclear issue, the Palestine-Israel conflict, tensions between Pakistan and India, and the recent Cambodia-Thailand dispute.
The India-Pakistan clash occurred from May 7-10 and concluded with a ceasefire. Hours before the ceasefire, Wang spoke with Indian National Security Adviser Ajit Doval, urging dialogue and consultation to resolve differences. He also contacted Pakistani counterpart Mohammad Ishaq Dar, expressing China’s support for an early ceasefire. “Once a ceasefire is reached, it must be jointly observed to prevent the recurrence of conflict,” Wang stated. “This protects the interests of both nations, contributes to regional stability, and aligns with international expectations. China is willing to continue playing a constructive role.”
US President Donald Trump has claimed credit for brokering the ceasefire by threatening trade restrictions, though New Delhi rejected this, emphasizing that the truce resulted from direct talks between the Indian and Pakistani military leadership.
