China Ambassador speaks on Middle East, North Africa, and Human rights
Chinese Ambassador to the UN Security Council Li Baodong, has appealed for the International community to heed to voices of the Arab world following the mass uprisings witnessed in recent weeks. His speech at the Security Council in New York, also touched on the Middle East, and finally on reform in China, where he assured the onlookers that China is always pushing for important reforms.
What is China role in the North African uprising? China gets oil from the region than the US and UK. Libya exports 11& of its oil to China, 3% AND 4% the US and UK respectively.
