China 'Respects The People's Choice'

CHINA said yesterday it respects the choices of the people of Libya after the country's opposition forces announced they had taken control of the capital.

"We have noticed recent changes in the Libyan situation and we respect the Libyan people's choice," said Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Ma Zhaoxu when responding to a question on the civil war.

China is ready to play an active role in Libya's reconstruction, he said on the ministry's website.

After fighting erupted in Libya in February, China evacuated 35,000 of its citizens working there.
