BEIJING: Hours after India launched ‘Operation Sindoor’ targeting nine terror sites inside Pakistan, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson expressed concern over the ongoing situation and urged both nations to act in the larger interest of peace and stability, remain calm, exercise restraint and refrain from taking actions that may further complicate situation.
The Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson said that it opposes all forms of terrorism. The spokesperson further said that India and Pakistan will always remain each other’s neighbours, and they are neighbours of China as well.
In a statement, Chinese Foreign Ministry stated, “We are concerned about the ongoing situation. India and Pakistan are and will always be each other’s neighbors. They’re both China’s neighbors as well. China opposes all forms of terrorism. We urge both sides to act in the larger interest of peace and stability, remain calm, exercise restraint and refrain from taking actions that may further complicate the situation.”
Chinese Foreign Ministry’s statement comes in the wake of Indian strikes under “Operation Sindoor,” which targeted nine terrorist camps in Pakistan.
India’s Ministry of Defence said the action was in direct response to the April 22 Pahalgam terror attack that killed 25 Indian nationals and one Nepali citizen and injured several others.
