习近平指出，中巴两国是相互信任、彼此支持的好朋友、好伙伴。中国是最早承认巴勒斯坦解放组织和巴勒斯坦国的国家之一，始终坚定支持巴勒斯坦人民恢复民族合法权利的正义事业，推动巴勒斯坦问题早日得到全面、公正、持久解决。中方支持巴勒斯坦成为联合国正式会员国，将继续在多边场合为巴方仗义执言、主持公道，愿继续向巴方提供力所能及的援助，帮助巴方缓解人道主义困难、开展重建。中方愿同巴方以建立战略伙伴关系为契机，继续在彼此核心关切问题上坚定相互支持，全面推进各领域友好合作，深化共建“一带一路”合作，加快中巴自由贸易协定谈判，加强治国理政经验交流，赓续传统友好。

习近平强调，巴勒斯坦问题延宕半个多世纪，给巴勒斯坦人民带来深重苦难，必须尽快还巴勒斯坦以公道。习近平提出三点主张。第一，解决巴勒斯坦问题的根本出路在于建立以1967年边界为基础、以东耶路撒冷为首都、享有完全主权的独立的巴勒斯坦国。第二，巴勒斯坦经济民生需求应该得到保障，国际社会应该加大对巴勒斯坦发展援助和人道主义帮扶。第三，要坚持和谈正确方向。尊重耶路撒冷宗教圣地历史上形成的现状，摒弃过激和挑衅言行，推动召开更大规模、更具权威、更有影响的国际和平会议，为重启和谈创造条件，为帮助巴以两国和平共处作出切实努力。中方愿为巴方实现内部和解、推动和谈发挥积极作用。

习近平强调，面对世界百年变局和中东地区局势新变化，中方愿同巴勒斯坦等发展中国家加强团结合作，在国际和地区事务中加强配合，推进中阿集体合作，维护发展中国家共同利益和国际公平正义。

Chinese, Palestinian presidents hold talks

BEIJING, June 14 (Xinhua) -- Chinese President Xi Jinping held talks with Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas in Beijing on Wednesday.

The two leaders announced the establishment of a strategic partnership between China and Palestine.

Xi said China and Palestine are good friends and good partners who trust and support each other. He said China was one of the first countries to recognize the Palestine Liberation Organization and the State of Palestine.

China has all along firmly supported the Palestinian people's just cause of restoring their legitimate national rights and worked for a comprehensive, just and durable solution of the Palestinian question at an early date, Xi said.

China supports Palestine in becoming a full member state of the United Nations, will continue to speak up for Palestine and champion justice on multilateral occasions, and will provide assistance as best as it can to help ease humanitarian difficulties and reconstruction in Palestine, Xi said.

He called on both sides to take the establishment of strategic partnership as an opportunity to continue supporting each other on issues of core concern, advance cooperation in various areas, deepen partnership in jointly building the Belt and Road, speed up negotiations on the China-Palestine free trade agreement, share experiences on national governance and further the traditional friendship.

Xi put forward a three-point proposal for the settlement of the Palestinian question. Xi stressed that the Palestinian question has remained unresolved for over half a century, causing great sufferings to the Palestinian people; justice must be done to Palestine as soon as possible.

First, the fundamental solution lies in the establishment of an independent state of Palestine that enjoys full sovereignty on the basis of the 1967 borders and with east Jerusalem as its capital, he said.

Second, Palestine's economic and livelihood needs should be met, and the international community needs to step up development assistance and humanitarian aid to Palestine, he said.

Third, it is important to keep to the right direction of peace talks. The historical status quo of the holy sites in Jerusalem should be respected, and excessive and provocative words and actions should be avoided. A large-scale, more authoritative and more influential international peace conference should be convened so as to create conditions for the resumption of peace talks and contribute tangible efforts to help Palestine and Israel live in peace, he said.

"China stands ready to play a positive role to assist Palestine in achieving internal reconciliation and promote peace talks," Xi said.

Xi said China is willing to strengthen solidarity and cooperation with Palestine and other developing countries, enhance coordination in international and regional affairs, advance China's cooperation with Arab states, and safeguard the common interests of developing countries and international fairness and justice.

On behalf of the Palestinian people, Abbas thanked China for its long-term strong support and selfless assistance for the Palestinian people's just cause of restoring their legitimate national rights, calling China a trustworthy friend and partner.

Abbas said Palestine supports China's position on issues concerning its core interests and follows the one-China principle, adding that Palestine will work with China to promote the Belt and Road Initiative, strengthen bilateral cooperation and build a community with a shared future for humanity.

Palestine backs the Global Security Initiative, the Global Development Initiative and the Global Civilization Initiative proposed by President Xi, and speaks highly of the China-mediated talks between Saudi Arabia and Iran, Abbas said.

He thanked China for putting forward a number of initiatives on an early and just settlement of the Palestinian question. The Palestinian side believes in China's wisdom and just position and expects China to play a greater role in promoting intra-Palestinian reconciliation and realizing peace in the Middle East.

After their talks, the two presidents witnessed the signing of documents on bilateral economic and technological cooperation.

Prior to the talks, Xi held a welcoming ceremony for Abbas in the Northern Hall of the Great Hall of the People. ■
