China downplays UNSC condemnation of Jaish-e-Mohammad

Beijing, Feb 22 (IBNS): China on Friday downplayed an United Nations Security Council resolution that condemned the Pulwama terror attack and named Pakistan-based Jaish-e-Mohammad (JeM) for the “heinous and cowardly suicide bombing”.

Speaking to reporters, China's foreign ministry spokesperson Geng Shuang said: “On Thursday, the UN Security Council issued a press statement that mentioned a particular organisation but only in general terms. It does not represent a judgment on the attack.”

Beijing has been blocking India's efforts to name JeM chief Masood Azhar a global terrorist.

In the United Nations Security Council statement issued on Thursday night, it, according to reports, said: “The members of the Security Council condemned in the strongest terms the heinous and cowardly suicide bombing in Jammu and Kashmir, which resulted in over 40 Indian paramilitary forces dead and dozens wounded on February 14, 2019, for which Jaish-e-Mohammad has claimed responsibility.”

“China hopes all parties will work to find the truth about this attack. We hope Pakistan and India will engage in dialogue to jointly safeguard regional peace and stability,” Shuang reportedly said.
