China has held over 50 video conferences with Arab countries and the Arab Union and dispatched nearly 100 medical experts to eight countries in the region, Wang elaborated. 

China is implementing its promise to make vaccines a public product and has exported 17 million doses to the region, he added.

Answering questions related to Xinjiang and Hong Kong, Wang said China highly appreciates the support of 21 Arab countries at the Human Rights Council which concluded this week and is willing to work with Arab and Islamic countries to uphold the principle of non-interference in other countries' internal affairs and safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of developing countries. 

Speaking of the Yemen crisis, Wang voiced support for a Saudi initiative announced on Monday to end the war in Yemen and called for implementing the Saudi initiative for a settlement in Yemen as soon as possible. 

The Saudi peace initiative includes a nationwide ceasefire and the reopening of air and sea links with the territories held by the Houthi group in Yemen.
