China praises Pakistan's restraint

That China has always acted with a lot of prudence - a hallmark of the former 'Middle Kingdom' - is a fact. Asking both India and Pakistan to refrain from taking actions that aggravate the situation, China has heaped a lot of praise on Pakistan. It has praised Pakistan's "restraint" and willingness to talk with India to ease tensions between the two countries.
China maintains that the sovereignty and territorial integrity of all countries should be respected and does not want to see acts that violate the norms of international relations. China has impliedly censured India for its growing belligerence against Pakistan.
