China has urged all parties to remain calm regarding navigation in the Strait of Hormuz. Beijing also said that it is willing to play a constructive role in this regard. Reuters reported this. In response to US President Donald Trump’s threat to block the Strait of Hormuz, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Guo Jiaqun made the call on Monday (April 13).
\nChinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Guo Jiaqun said that the Strait of Hormuz is a very important international route for trade and energy transportation. Maintaining security and stability in the region and ensuring smooth navigation are in the interests of the entire international community.
\nCiting the ongoing war in Iran as the main reason for the disruption of traffic in this waterway, he added that the solution is an early ceasefire and an end to the war. All parties should remain calm and show restraint. China is ready to play a positive and constructive role in this regard.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
