Amid a persistently volatile security landscape in the Middle East, triggered by a February joint military strike on Iran by the United States and Israel that sent conflict spiraling across the region and threatened global energy and economic stability, Chinese President Xi Jinping has put forward a comprehensive four-point proposal to advance enduring peace and stability in the region. The proposal was delivered during a Tuesday meeting in Beijing with Sheikh Khaled bin Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates.
