Chinese foreign ministry has urged Pakistan and India to exercise restraint and peacefully resolve disputes through negotiation.

According to the details, Chinese Foreign Ministry’s spokesperson Geng Shuang said during his weekly briefing that as a neighbor to both China requests on both sides to exercise restraint and refrain from taking actions that will worsen conditions.

While commenting on latest situation on the Line of Control (LoC), he said, “We have noted the relevant reports and we are following the situation.”

It is pertinent to mention that China urged India and Pakistan to “exercise restraint” after Indian aircraft violated Pakistan airspace, in a move that sent tensions soaring between the countries over Indian-held Jammu Kashmir.

“We hope that both India and Pakistan can exercise restraint and adopt actions that will help stabilise the situation in the region and improve mutual relations,” China’s Foreign Ministry spokesman Lu Kang said.
