China on Tuesday urged all parties to reach a cease-fire in Libya and resolve the crisis through political means.

Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Jiang Yu gave China's position at a press conference as both sides of the conflict are seeking a solution to the enduring crisis.

"We expect the parties in Libya to give priority to the interests of the country and people, take into full account the mediation proposals by the international community and ease tensions at an early time," Jiang said.

She stressed that China respects the Libyan people's choice and supports all efforts helpful to tackle the crisis in a political way.

"China would like to stay in touch with all parties and play its own role in seeking political solutions to the crisis," Jiang said.
