China’s Permanent Representative to the UN called to combat terrorism in all forms with zero tolerance

China’s Permanent Representative to the UN Ambassador Zhang Jun at the UN Security Council Briefing on the Threats to International Peace and Security Caused by Terrorist Acts called on the international community to combat terrorism in all forms with zero tolerance. 

China paid special attention to the UN Secretary General's report which states that the East Turkestan Islamic Movement, a terrorist organization listed by the Security Council, is cooperating with the ISIL-Khorasan group, Zhang said.

We call on the international community to combat all forms of terrorism with zero tolerance, and urge the Taliban in Afghanistan to take resolute and strong measures to prevent the convergence of terrorist forces in Afghanistan, so as to effectively protect the safety of Afghan people and foreign citizens living in the country, the Chinese official said.
