China on Thursday accused the US of undermining the authority of the UN anti-terrorism committee by “forcefully moving” a resolution in the UNSC to list Pakistan based JeM chief Masood Azhar as a global terrorist,saying America’s move only “complicates” the issue.
The US along with France,UK has moved a draft resolution in the UN Security Council to blacklist the Pakistan-based terror group’s chief,two weeks after China denied the proposal to list Masood Azhar as a global terrorist.
The Chinese spokesperson warned that the US move will only complicate the situation.
“This is not in line with resolution of the issue through dialogue and negotiations.This has reduced the authority of the Committee as a main anti-terrorism body of the UNSC and this is not conductive to the solidarity and only complicates the issue.We urge the US to act cautiously and avoid forcefully moving forward this resolution draft,”china said.
