The UN Security Council adopted a resolution on Friday, calling on all countries to coordinate efforts to prevent further terrorist attacks by the Islamic State (IS) and similar groups.
The unanimously-adopted resolution calls upon member states that have the capacity to do so to "take all necessary measures" to "redouble and coordinate their efforts to prevent and suppress terrorist acts" committed by the IS and other terrorist groups.
The resolution "unequivocally condemns in the strongest terms" the horrifying IS terrorist attacks in Sousse, Ankara, Sinai, Beirut and Paris, and other attacks including hostage-taking and killing, terming "all such acts of terrorism as a threat to peace and security."
It also expresses sympathy to the people and governments of Tunisia, Turkey, Russia, Lebanon and France, and to all governments whose citizens were targeted in the above mentioned attacks and all other victims of terrorism.
On behalf of the Chinese government, Chinese Ambassador to the United Nations Liu Jieyi expressed condolence to the victims of terrorist attacks.
"The Chinese government is firmly opposed to any form of terrorism and will unswervingly crackdown on any violent terrorist activities that challenge the bottom line of human civilization. The crackdown on the East Turkistan terrorist forces represented by the Eastern Turkistan Islamic Movement (ETIM) is an important part of the international counter-terrorism efforts. We will work with the international community to further strengthen cooperation on counter-terrorism and maintain world peace and stability," said Liu.
The IS has been conducting terrorist acts in different countries and areas. The most recent ones that have shocked the world are the Paris attacks which took place on last Friday, in which about 130 people were killed and many more were injured.
