China at UNGA rejects 'Cold War mindset', urges US to lift Cuba blockade

At the UN General Assembly, China's representative reiterated opposition to a 'Cold War mindset', called on the US to immediately lift its blockade of Cuba, and affirmed that Palestine should be governed by Palestinians and that Middle Eastern nations' sovereignty should be respected. This is consistent with China's established diplomatic rhetoric, but the explicit linkage of these issues in a single address signals a continued push to frame itself as a counterweight to US policy.
