China In Context
How China sees the Middle East
China says it will do its utmost to restore peace to the Middle East and has called for a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas in the Gaza strip. Its proposal has been rejected by Israel as the ground assault on Gaza continues. Meanwhile in China itself, feelings on the Middle East conflict are gathering intensity, with social media revealing an anti-semitic streak among some influencers. In this podcast, the journalist and author Howard Zhang explains China’s approach to the Middle East in conversation with regular host, Duncan Bartlett.
