PORT MORESBY, April 21 – A prompt admission of Palestine into the United Nations is a move to rectify prolonged historical injustice, Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi said on Saturday.
Wang, also a member of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China Central Committee, made the remarks at a press conference with his Papua New Guinea counterpart Justin Tkatchenko in Port Moresby.
The United Nations should work to play its due role in responding to global challenges, and the UN Security Council should do its duty to maintain international peace and security, Wang sai.
He noted that the international community has profound dissatisfaction and disappointment at the United States over its sole veto recently to deny Palestine full UN membership.
