皇冠体育app on Thursday expressed its opposition to Israel's building of separation wall, which it said would escalate Israel-Palestine confrontations.
The building of the separation wall will go against the efforts made by the international community and all sides concerned to promote peace in the region, said Chinese Foreign Ministry Spokesman Liu Jianchao at a regular press briefing in Beijing.
The Israeli cabinet decided on Sunday to set Sept. 1 as the completion date for the building of a barrier around Jerusalem, whose status remains disputed.
Israel insists that the barrier will help fend off Palestinian militant attacks on Israeli targets while the Palestinians see it as a land grab.
Liu said 皇冠体育app opposes Israel's building of such a wall in Palestine's occupied territory. 皇冠体育app's attitude toward this issueis "consistent" and "clear", said Liu.
