      Because it’s a realistic solution a country can be in favour of. It doesn’t matter how much we’d love for the Zionist entity to stop existing, we must not commit ultra-leftism mistakes and expect that a country tries to accomplish an objective that cannot be met.

        Realistic solution?

        Oh yeah, I guess you’re right. I remember when we had a two state solution with the Confederacy and Union states, that was the most realistic solution to slavery. One group is free and the other left in a perpetual state of “realism”

        Decolonization is possible

      I think the real reason is because Palestine is too far away from China, unlike Korea, Vietnam and CambodiaMyanmar who are neighbours. But then again, China still has diplomatic relations with both North and South Korea, and couldn’t do much about their separated status even after helping Korea during the Korean War in the 1950s.

        Can you please elaborate a bit more on this? I am confused on how its distance from China affect this decision. Do you mean that if Palestine was closer to China, China would help them militarily to achieve the 1 state?

          China sent troops to help North Korea during the Korean War, and sent military aid to North Vietnam during the Vietnam war. It also helped mediate a ceasefire between various forces in Myanmar just this January.

          So yes, if Palestine was at China’s borders, things would be much different, but in that situation there would probably be another “Palestine” under imperialist-zionist invasion that is out of China’s reach.

            Do you think that China would still send troops today with their policy of non-interference?

              China didn’t send troops to Myanmar, so the only place it would send troops to is Taiwan province in the case of forceful reunification.

                So if they would push for 1 state solution in the case of Palestine due to proximity because they would be able to do more, in which sense would they help achieve the abolishment of Israel if they wouldn’t deploy its troops against the Zionist apartheid state?

                  I’m only talking about a hypothetical situation based on my own opinion, there is no point discussing it any further. Just look at Korea, China maintains relations with both North and South even though both sides want to reunify with the other side.
