Officials from Hamas and Fatah met in Beijing for talks of intra-Palestinian reconciliation. Power-sharing between the factions remains unlikely, with Fatah demanding Hamas dismantle its armed wing.
China's engagement with the Israeli-Palestinian conflict aims to showcase its role as a global peacemaker, contrasting with the US. Beijing uses diplomatic ties like Iran-Saudi and peace principles for Ukraine to bolster this image.
China's support for the Palestinian cause serves its foreign policy strategy of representing developing countries and the global south. These actions are seen as gestures fitting with China's current priorities for global influence.
