“We have full confidence in the China-Israel relationship,” Xi said.
Peres called the Chinese a peace-loving people, an interesting twist on China’s love for its own people whom they kill often kill for the sake of the regime’s own peace.
Peres, of course, also talked about the peace process, which he said China can help advance.
