Pakistan is mediating peace negotiations between parties in an ongoing conflict. China is supporting a ceasefire, while the US has issued a strong warning regarding a blockade.
Pakistan, acting as a mediator in peace negotiations, continues efforts to resolve the ongoing conflict despite concerns of escalation. This includes a phone call with China’s Foreign Minister Wang Yi to support the fragile ceasefire and encourage further negotiations.
“The immediate priority is to make every effort towards preventing the resumption of hostilities and to maintain the hard-won ceasefire momentum,” Wang told Dar, according to a Chinese foreign ministry statement.
During a press gaggle later on Monday, US President Donald Trump said Beijing “would like to see this ended”, citing “a very good relationship with China”.
“We’ve been called this morning by the right people, the appropriate people, and they want to work to do, they would like to work,” said Trump when asked about diplomatic efforts to end the conflict. The US president did not specify who the callers were.
However, Trump began his morning on a hardline note, taking to social media to warn that “If any of these ships come anywhere close to our BLOCKADE, they will be immediately ELIMINATED, using the same system of kill that we use against the drug dealers on boats at Sea”. “It is Quick and brutal,” he said.
