Um, I am not sure how I feel about this. Why would Xi support a two-state solution? Isn't it more justified to have a one-state solution and return all of the land to the Palestinians? Won't a two-state solution eventually lead us back to another genocide? This feels off. I did not expect Xi to make such a statement.

there's a big difference between a permanent two-state solution (practically impossible in the long run, and unreasonable to the Palestinians) and a temporary two-state solution to stop the current genocide and let the Palestinians recover (what Hamas and others want)

But this is what Xi is proposing as the permanent lasting solution.

“I have emphasised on many occasions that the only viable way to break the cycle of Palestinian-Israeli conflict lies in a two-state solution, in the restoration of the legitimate national rights of Palestine, and in the establishment of an independent state of Palestine,” Xi said.

I'd say the Oslo accords were the last dividing point where anything looking like a two state solution without essentially dismantling Israel was realistic. But they assassinated the PM who was cooperating in the effort and the hard line Zionists have been in charge since.

Talking about a temporary two state solution is the same as going back to the pre October 7th status quo. Israel isn't going to end their current course unless forced to by outside forces.

that quote doesn't state whether it's a permanent solution or a temporary one, only that he believes it would establish some kind of peace (again, no duration specified); how you interpret it depends on your view of the CPC, and I'm inclined to believe that they're highly competent and geopolitically informed

no, it would return part of the occupied territories to the Palestinians, leaving them in a better position for the inevitable conflict to dismantle "Israel"
