China's Middle East envoy to Saudi Arabia to mediate war with Iran

The Chinese government's special envoy for Middle East affairs, Zhai Jun, has visited Saudi Arabia as part of his mediation in the US-Israeli war with Iran, saying Beijing is willing to work with Riyadh to make unremitting efforts to maintain peace and stability in the Gulf region.

Zhai, who described China as a good friend and partner of Saudi Arabia, is holding talks with Saudi Foreign Minister Faisal bin Farhan Al Saud and Secretary-General of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC), Jasem al-Budaiwi.

In a meeting with Foreign Minister Prince Faisal on Monday, Zhai expressed deep concern over the current tensions in the region and said that the sovereignty, security and territorial integrity of Gulf states must not be violated and any attacks on innocent civilians and non-military targets must be condemned.

Zhai also reiterated Beijing's call for an immediate cessation of military operations./ CNA
