UNITED NATIONS, July 19 (Xinhua) — China's Deputy Permanent Representative to the United Nations Geng Shuang called for efforts to advance the peace process in Colombia at a Security Council meeting on Friday.
According to him, the peace process in Colombia is a fine example of ending conflict and restoring peace through dialogue and negotiations. As the process is now entering an uncharted path, relevant parties should strengthen their resolve, overcome difficulties, and steadily advance the cause of peace for the sake of stability and development of the country, Geng Shuang said.
“The peace agreement remains an effective roadmap for consolidating peace in Colombia, and achieving peace is in the interests of all Colombian parties,” the diplomat said.
According to the deputy permanent representative, China supports the decision of Colombian President Gustavo Petro to focus on implementing the peace agreement during the remainder of his term. China welcomes the recent development by the Colombian government of an action plan for 2025, which sets out priorities in various sectors, he added.
As the presidential election in Colombia approaches, China hopes that all political forces in the country will put the people's well-being first, cherish and defend the peace achieved so far, and prevent a return to political violence, Geng Shuang stressed.
Beijing stands ready to strengthen cooperation with members of the Community of Latin American and Caribbean States (CELAC), including Colombia, to build a China-CELAC community with a shared future, thereby making positive contributions to world peace and development, he added. –0–
