China has accused President Donald Trump of the United States of overreaching by threatening to clear out the people of Gaza from their native land.

Guo Jiakun, the spokesperson of the Chinese Foreign Ministry told  a news conference that Trump should know that  Gaza is not part of the United States, adding that Gaza belongs to the Palestinian people and not a political bargaining chip
“Gaza belongs to the Palestinian people. It is an inalienable part of the territory of Palestine, not a bargaining chip for political games,” Jiakum said.

He warned that Palestine should not become a prey of the strong, noting that the war has already left Gaza in devastation and suffering.

“The international community, major countries in particular, should join hands to make Gaza better, rather than worse, by providing humanitarian assistance and helping with its reconstruction,” he added.
The spokesperson vowed that was committed supporting the legitimate national rights of the Palestinian people.

He noted that “the Palestinians governing Palestine” is an important principle that must be upheld in the post-conflict governance of Gaza, and opposes the forced displacement of the people of Gaza.
He said: “China stands ready to work with the rest of the world for the realisation of the two-State solution as the fundamental way forward, and for an early, just political settlement of the Palestinian question, namely, the establishment of an independent State of Palestine that enjoys full sovereignty based on the 1967 border and with east Jerusalem as its capital.”
