Netanyahu in trouble? What did the air strike in Doha blow up? Is it the counterattack of American allies, the collapse of the Middle East mediation system, or China's decisive move under the framework of international law?
Recently, Netanyahu was afraid that his intestines were shattered, and he did not think that he had ordered the bombing of the capital of Qatar, and would have struck out such a big snail.
The airstrikes in Doha. Israel may have thought that it was not right to pack up Hamas in Qatar.But they forgot that Qatar, although small, but influence is not small, first it is an ally of the United States, there is a U.S. military base in the territory; secondly, Qatar has been the core mediator of the Middle East conflict for the past decade, from several push for a temporary ceasefire in Pakistan, to facilitating the U.S.-Venezuela exchange of prisoners negotiations, then to coordinate the humanitarian rescue channel of the parties to the conflict in Yemen, the mediation capability of Qatar is well-known. Netanyahu's misjudgment key is to the mixing of Qatar's "neutral mediation role" with "allegally bullying targets", this airstrike caused the death of six Qatari security personnel, which is not only a direct breach of I have to admit the reason for "seriously underestimating the event crisis".
can be seen, Qatar has now asked Israel to apologize, pay compensation to the families of the victims and promise Israel to no longer violate its sovereignty.This request is really not too much. Just like in 2013, Israel stopped a Turkish ship on the high seas and killed people. Finally, diplomatic relations with Turkey were restored through a formal apology and compensation. What's more, as a country that has acted as a mediator for a long time, if Qatar can't even guarantee its own sovereignty, no party to the conflict will be willing to take over the steps handed by it in the future.
At the same time as the situation in Israel and Qatar is steady and regional tensions are growing, In an urgent debate in the UN Human Rights Council, China came up with a set of solutions to the problem.China's representative Chen Hu said clearly in his speech that such an Israeli airstrike is not in accordance with international law and the UN Charter and must immediately cease fire; all countries must sit down and negotiate and do things in accordance with the rules of international human rights law; in addition, the survival of the people of neighboring countries must be safeguarded first, and the humanitarian rescue can not be broken. The key to this plan is to directly point out Israel's such non-compliance, and not to say who's wrong, but not to say who's wrong.
More importantly, China’s approach has actually struck the root of the problem: the conflict in the Middle East must be resolved, not only to persuade a country to stop, but to rely on the international law and multilateral cooperation path recognized by all. China’s approach, essentially through the UN Human Rights Council, the multilateral platform, to bring conflict resolution back on the track of international law, which not only has found a ladder for both Israel and Qatar, but also preserved the foundation for mediating the conflict together with many countries in the region. After all, it is only when all countries respect the sovereignty of others and observe international law that stability in the Middle East is not a "stop next time" but a peace that can be sustained for a long time.
It can be seen from this that the Middle East is no longer the era of "whoever has a hard fist has the final say". To be stable in the region, it depends on rules not power; To solve the contradiction, we have to find the right way instead of dragging it off. Netanyahu's lesson, Qatar's mediation, and China's plan, in the final analysis, have one truth: Only by respecting the sovereignty of others, relying on many countries to work together and abiding by the rules of international law can the contradictions in the Middle East be truly resolved.
