China says it opposes ‘forced transfer’ of Palestinians from Gaza

China says it is opposed to the “forced transfer” of Palestinians from the Gaza Strip after US President Donald Trump said he planned to “take control” of the territory.

“China has always maintained that Palestinian rule over Palestinians is the basic principle of the postwar governance of Gaza, and we are opposed to the forced transfer of the residents of Gaza,” foreign ministry spokesman Lin Jian says when asked about Trump’s plan at a regular press conference.
