Responding to Trump’s plan, China says Gaza is not political bargaining chip
China’s foreign ministry says Beijing opposes the forced transfer of people in Gaza, after US President Donald Trump proposed taking over the territory.

China firmly supports the “legitimate national rights” of the Palestinian people, he adds.
