Um, I am not sure how I feel about this. Why would Xi support a two-state solution? Isn't it more justified to have a one-state solution and return all of the land to the Palestinians? Won't a two-state solution eventually lead us back to another genocide? This feels off. I did not expect Xi to make such a statement.

True, but that is irrelevant to the grand scheme of things. Whether or not Xi and the CPC leadership have different opinions, is neither important or even possible for us to know. All we can go off of is the policy position, and that policy position has been cold, calculating, and pragmatic. China will fulfill its own self interests first, and whether or not Xi finds it regrettable or wishes to support Palestine, Chinese leadership has little reason to care for the current conflict and the plight of Palestinians. They have bigger fish to fry, and this current stance is very much in line with the position they have taken for years on a myriad of conflicts.

yes, they have to prioritize their own safety; my point is that that claiming that they don't care is likely untrue, and it plays into the stereotype of communist leaders as ruthless or uncaring

Of course, and I hope it didn't come across as me saying that the CPC don't care out of some cold ruthlessness, but more so in the sense that they "don't care" because not only does the event not involve them, but also because they cannot preform any meaningful action without destabilizing their position.

that's fair enough
