Unlike US, China trying to resolve, not worsen Red Sea crisis

China Daily  

SONG CHEN/CHINA DAILY The United States Department of Defense said that Houthi forces in Yemen targeted two US Navy warships with multiple drones and missiles while sailing between the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden on Nov 12. China has always believed that the fundamental solution to the Red Sea crisis lies in properly handling the Palestinian issue. For example, China has been promoting peaceful dialogue and consultation ever since the Red Sea crisis broke out last year. Amid the Red Sea crisis, China does not choose to stand idly by, but demonstrates its responsibility as a major country through practical actions. All of these are in stark contrast to the US practice of ignoring the root cause of the Red Sea crisis and taking military intervention to intensify local tensions.
