China on Tuesday said it would continue to play a constructive role in pushing forward a proper settlement of the Darfur issue.
Chinese Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Jiang Yu made the remarks on Tuesday afternoon at a regular press conference when asked to comment on China's recent donation of half a million U.S. dollars to a trust fund to support the diplomatic efforts by the United Nations (UN).
Jiang said China has always been paying close attention to the situation in Darfur of Sudan, supporting the international efforts to move forth the political process of the region, supporting the mediation work by the two special envoys from the UN and the AU (African Union), noting that China hopes relevant parties to reach comprehensive peace accord as soon as possible.
According to Jiang, China's permanent mission at the UN on March28 donated half a million U.S. dollars to the Trust Fund for the AU-UN Joint Mediation Support Team for Darfur on behalf of the Chinese government.
