Chinese President Xi Jinping on Tuesday put forward a four‑point proposal to promote peace and stability in the Middle East during his meeting in Beijing with Sheikh Khaled bin Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi in the United Arab Emirates.
Xi called for adherence to the principle of peaceful coexistence. He stressed the importance of establishing a common, comprehensive, cooperative, and sustainable security architecture for the Middle East and the Gulf region.
He emphasized respect for the principle of national sovereignty, stating that the sovereignty, security, and territorial integrity of Middle Eastern and Gulf countries must be fully respected, and that the safety of personnel, facilities, and institutions of all countries should be effectively guaranteed.
Regarding the principle of international rule of law, Xi said the authority of international law must be upheld to prevent the world from reverting to the law of the jungle.
He added that development and security should be coordinated, urging all parties to work together to create a favorable environment for the development of Middle Eastern and Gulf countries.
