On Oct 15, 2026 in Baku during the CICA summit, China foreign minister Wang Yi
met Israeli President Herzog. Wang said regional peace and reconciliation are
the cornerstone of China's Middle East policy, reiterated that a two-state
solution is the correct path to resolve the Palestinian issue and called it the
century's greatest historical injustice. He said the region remains tense and
urged immediate, full opening of access into Gaza to prevent roughly 2 million
civilians from being pushed to the brink of survival and to stop a spreading
humanitarian catastrophe; he also said Israel should stop and reverse forced
settlement activity in the West Bank.
