His remarks come months after the last US–Russia arms treaty expired, and while China is expanding its stockpile faster than any other nuclear power.

He made the appeal at a regional summit in Baku, Azerbaijan, according to Beijing’s account of his talks with Israeli President Isaac Herzog. Wang also backed a two-state solution and called for full humanitarian access to Gaza. Beijing’s stance is widely read as a bid for influence in the Middle East. It comes as the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) faces its own accusations of persecuting religious and ethnic minorities.]]></description>
