Brussels, SANA – China’s Special Envoy for Syria, Ambassador Xie Xiaoyan, reiterated his country’s rejection of interfering in Syria’s internal affairs, affirming that the Syrian people alone will decide their country’s future and without any foreign interference.
In a statement to journalists in Brussels, Xiaoyan said that the foreign sides that are attempting to change the government in Syria must heed the lessons learned from Iraq and Libya, as past experiences have taught us that simply changing the governing system of a country would bring disaster like what happened in Iraq, Libya, and other places.
The Ambassador said that China focuses its attention on four issues: bolstering the cessation of combat activities agreement, fighting terrorism, improving humanitarian conditions, and guaranteeing the political settlement via dialogue, stressing the need for all involved parties to have the confidence and determination to find a final solution that takes into account the interests of all parties.
