China Says its oil workers in Sudan safe
10-30-2007
Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Liu Jianchao said that Chinese oil workers in Sudan are safe.
Liu made the remarks at a regular press conference in response to reports that a China-related oil field in Sudan were attacked by terrorists.
Liu said the conflict between the north and south has involved the Chinese oil companies and workers, and China is highly concerned about the situation there.
"We hope relevant sides could ceasefire immediately and solve the Darfur issue as soon as possible through peaceful negotiations." Liu said.
China hopes the Sudanese government could attach importance to the concern of China, and take effective measures to ensure the safety of the Chinese workers, Liu added.
