BEIJING, March 22 (Xinhua) -- China said on Tuesday that the recent turmoil in the Middle East should not distract international attention from the Palestinian issue.
"We have kept a close eye on the complex and profound changes occurring in the Middle East region, however, the international community should not overlook other hot-spot issues, especially the Palestinian issue," Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Jiang Yu told a regular press conference in Beijing.
China is committed to working with the international community to continue to play a constructive role to help resolve the issue, Jiang noted.
