China believes the two-State solution is the fundamental way to resolve the Palestinian question, Chinese foreign ministry spokesman Lin Jian said on Thursday, adding that China has consistently opposed the construction of new settlements in the occupied Palestinian territories.
Lin made the remarks at a regular news briefing when asked to comment on measures adopted by Israel to strengthen control in the occupied West Bank and facilitate settlement expansion.
"Gaza and the West Bank are both inalienable parts of Palestine's territory. The two-State solution is the fundamental way to resolve the Palestinian question. China has consistently opposed the construction of settlements on the occupied Palestinian territories, and China opposes any attempt to annex or encroach upon the territory of Palestine, and undermine the political foundation for the two-State solution. The current situation in Gaza is still very fragile. Relevant parties should stop any actions that could intensify conflicts and heighten tensions," said Lin.

China will make an objective and impartial final ruling over an anti-dumping probe in canola seed imports from Canada, the Ministry of Commerce said at a regular press briefing on Thursday.
The investigation, launched on Sept 9, 2024, has been extended to March 9, 2026 due to the complexity of the case, according to He Yadong, spokesman for the Ministry.
"During Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney's visit to China this January, both sides reached specific arrangements for properly resolving economic and trade issues in areas such as electric vehicles, steel and aluminum products, canola seeds, and agricultural and aquatic products. Canada will make positive adjustments to its unilateral measures targeting Chinese electric vehicles, steel and aluminum products. In response, China will adjust its anti-discrimination measures in accordance with relevant laws and regulations," He said.
"Given the complexity of the case, the anti-dumping investigation in Canadian canola imports has been extended to March 9, 2026. The Ministry of Commerce will issue an arbitration notice prior to this date. Within the framework of relevant regulations, the Ministry of Commerce will fully consider Canada's reasonable claims and make an objective and fair final ruling based on facts and evidence," he said.
