Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson, Hua Chunying, held a press conference on March 26, 2015.
China’s foreign ministry has expressed profound concerns about the ongoing chaotic conditions in Yemen following Saudi Arabia’s airstrikes on the capital Sana’a.
“The Chinese side has noticed that (Saudi Arabia has launched airstrikes against Yemen) and is deeply worried about the situation in Yemen that is getting worse,” Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson, Hua Chunying, said at a weekly press briefing on Thursday.
Expressing hope that the crisis could be resolved “through political dialogues”, Hua said, “We hope that all parties will act in accordance with relevant resolutions of the UN Security Council… and restore national stability and order at an early date.”
Hua also said advised Chinese citizens to cancel their planned visits to Yemen until further notice.
Saudi-led attacks: widely condemned
The Saudi invasion of Yemen drew condemnation from Iran, Russia, the Lebanese resistance movement Hezbollah, Syria, and Iraq.
The Iranian foreign minister called on Saudi Arabia on Thursday to immediately cease its military aggression against Yemen.
Speaking to Press TV on the situation in Yemen, he said, “We believe that the situation in Yemen is a very dangerous situation and we advise against any escalation because we believe that any interference in Yemen will simply lead to further loss of human life as it has since this morning.”
Meanwhile, Russia slammed the Saudi military aggression against Yemen, saying the offensive is not the right way to settle the crisis in the Arab country.
Saudi Arabia announced in the early hours of Thursday that it had begun launching airstrikes against the Houthis in the Yemeni capital city of Sana’a, where the Ansarullah fighters have been making advances.
The blatant violation of Yemen’s sovereignty by Saudi government, which have so far claimed the lives of at least 18 civilians, comes against a backdrop of total silence on the part of international bodies, especially the United Nations.
