China hopes Syria will achieve peace and restore stability as soon as possible, and it is ready to play a constructive role to that end, a Chinese envoy said on Tuesday.

Recently, the situation in Syria has undergone drastic changes, to which China pays great attention, Geng Shuang, China’s deputy permanent representative to the United Nations, said in his remarks at the United Nations Security Council briefing on Syria.

“It is imperative to stabilize the security situation,” Geng stressed, calling on all parties concerned in Syria to exercise calm and restraint, refrain from actions that may escalate the situation, and prevent new conflicts.

“We hope that Syria’s state institutions will remain operational to create conditions for the restoration of social order, and that “countries with influence, especially regional countries, will play a constructive role in stabilizing the situation in Syria,” he said.

He said that the long-term solution is to promote a political settlement, noting that China supports Syria in implementing Security Council Resolution 2254, advancing its domestic political process in line with the Syrian-led and Syrian-owned principle, and finding a national reconstruction plan through inclusive dialogue.

“The will of the Syrian people should be respected to avoid national division and fragmentation of the domestic situation,” the ambassador stressed, adding that China supports the active mediation role of the UN and Special Envoy Geir Pedersen’s work in facilitating dialogue between all parties.
