China Reiterates Its Categorical Rejection of Houthi Piracy in the Red Sea

China has reaffirmed its strong opposition to acts of piracy carried out by the Houthi militia in the Red Sea, emphasizing the importance of safeguarding international maritime security.

The situation remains dynamic, with ongoing discussions and measures aimed at countering the threat of piracy and ensuring the safety of maritime operations in the Red Sea.
