China rejects linking islam to terrorism
China stressed rejection to attribute terrorism to Islam, calling for drawing a clear distinction between the faith and the terrorism practiced by very few people who inflict harm upon the whole international community.
Head of the Media Department at the Chinese Foreign Ministry Leo Jian Chawa, who is on a visit to Egypt, said in a forum at the Egyptian Journalist Union Headquarters in Cairo Tuesday that his country is proud of the 20 million Moslem Chinese who enjoy very excellent relation with other countrymen.
Jian Chawa pointed out that a great many Moslems in China occupy senior posts in the state organs.
The Chinese official called on the international community to exert concerted efforts to fight the phenomena of terrorism and its dangerous repercussions on the world as a whole.
