"There are no winners in war and conflict. The prerequisite for resolving regional issues is an immediate ceasefire and an end to hostilities. Unlawful use of force and unilateral military action must be halted. The Middle East and the Gulf region should not become an arena for major-power rivalry or geopolitical conflict. Regional peace and stability require the joint efforts of all parties. The international community should have firm belief in peace, strengthen solidarity and coordination, and jointly seek comprehensive, holistic and effective solutions."

China's representative to the UN on Friday expressed concern over recent talks of renewed military action against Iran, stressing the need to firmly curb war, adhere to political settlement, uphold international rule of law and improve security governance.

Fu Cong made the remarks at an open meeting on the Gulf held by the UN Security Council to discuss escalating tensions in the region and growing threats to maritime security.

UN Assistant Secretary-General Khaled Khiari briefed the meeting, saying UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres has issued a grave warning over continued tensions in and around the Strait of Hormuz and the Bab al-Mandab Strait, noting that the situation poses serious risks to regional stability and the global economy.

Fu said that China has always been committed to ending war and promoting peace, and advocates resolving disputes through political and diplomatic channels.

"There are no winners in war and conflict. The prerequisite for resolving regional issues is an immediate ceasefire and an end to hostilities. Unlawful use of force and unilateral military action must be halted. The Middle East and the Gulf region should not become an arena for major-power rivalry or geopolitical conflict. Regional peace and stability require the joint efforts of all parties. The international community should have firm belief in peace, strengthen solidarity and coordination, and jointly seek comprehensive, holistic and effective solutions," Fu said.
