This is fake news, as some others have already have said.
There is one Chinese fund that doesn’t want to buy the remaining minority stake in an Israeli project for financial reasons and it cites this alleged ban by the Chinese government. But such a ban doesn’t exist.
Both trade between the Israel and China as well as Chinese investment in Israel remain a level. For example, as one report on China-Israel economic cooperation by the Middle East Institute - authored by Chinese scholar Dr Zhu Zhaoyi - says:
On 20 August 2025, Chinese Ambassador to Israel Xiao Junzheng published a signed article in Calcalist, Israel’s largest financial daily, entitled “China’s growth can usher in a new era for China-Israel cooperation”. He highlighted that, while geographically distant, China and Israel remain highly complementary partners […]
In May 2025, a dedicated life‑sciences matchmaking event in Tel Aviv led to six new Israeli projects, including energy management systems and carbonates technology, signing agreements to enter the park, underscoring its growing role in emerging-health innovation.
Meanwhile, the “Guang‑Israel Tech Changzhou Innovation Institute”, co-located within the park, onboarded 10 seed projects, five start-ups, and sealed three industry-academia-research cooperation agreements during its 2025 launch ceremony, highlighting the platform’s increasing capacity for commercialisation and talent development.
There are many other reports pointing in the same direction. Israel-China ties are strong, including Chinese investment in Israel.
Out of all the countries out there… China?!? is setting the example? (although still a bit late). The western world is going to shit. China is a rising Phoenix. What a fucking dystopia we live in. Because China is still a totalitarian regime.
Realistically they don’t give a shit what Israel does, they only did it because of political (US ally/puppet) reasons
They’re obviously doing this for PR. As soon as Trump declared Liberation Day, I knew China would use the opportunity to present themselves as the better trading partner. I have seen a recent survey of Europeans saying they trust China more than the US.
But yeah, as recently revealed, the CIA has uncovered a plot by China to sit back, relax and watch the USA destroy itself.
Pretty much, China realised you can catch more flies with honey rather than vinegar, and it worked. Everyone’s lining up to go to Beijing to kiss the ring, especially Europeans.
Well one country is threatening to invade us every 6-ish months, and keeps trying to destroy every agreement we have with them. The other country is sticking to our deals, and doesn’t try to fuck us over every chance they get. I wonder why we like China more than USA…
Yeah, my fear is that European leaders will get too comfortable switching from one hegemon to the other and the root issue of the EU not being able to stand on its own without some sort of guarantor won’t ever be solved.
If China is hegemon, I don’t think the EU would appreciate the types of tribute they’d have to pay to Beijing
Chinese government do same things on Uyghurs lol
Wow, I do have to admit that China is on a roll these days.
Then again, it ain’t hard acting like a nice guy with trump around.
China cares about Palestinians as much as the US cares about Ukrainians… not much
Don’t pretend like they’re good guys. Empires don’t care about the lives of people, its just a statistic to them.
That’s kinda of what I meant; fuck China, Winnie Pooh is evil, but they’re working hrlard in their image now, and trump is making that easy
They are absolutely going to pull ahead on the world stage, whatever that really means.
But if you have lived in America all your life and been told how we’re the gleaming city on the mountain, the land of milk-and-honey and all that pabulum we’ve been fed for decades and decades, and then walk around in one of China’s newer cities you will have a radical culture shock. Then have a medical problem and walk into one of their hospitals.
Fuck, just walk into a public restroom or use their mass transit and you will wonder where the fuck your tax money is going.
Their space program alone gets zero coverage in the US and has done amazing things that will guarantee them the solar system in just a few decades.
Not saying they’re some kind of perfect nation, their human rights issues, their abuse of their workers, their racism and xenophobia are still huge and glaring, but it’s going to be a lot worse in the US before long.
… since the outbreak of the war in Israel, Beijing has classified Israel as a “high-risk area” and imposed a ban on any new Chinese investments in the country.
The South China Morning Post, a Hong Kong-based Chinese propaganda outlet, published just last week that China, Israel continue to collaborate in science and tech despite unrest in Gaza.
While Beijing supports Palestine and has a fractious relationship with Tel Aviv’s closest ally, cutting-edge innovations keep them together.
In a report published just now in February 2026, Lloyd’s Bank explicitly says,
Chinese investment in Israel has grown rapidly in recent years, particularly in software, IT services and consumer electronics.
Trade between China and Israel is also at an all-time high since the outbreak of the pandemic, and this hasn’t notably changed since the Gaza war (with Chinese exports higher to Israel have always been higher than imports from Israel, so Israel runs a trade deficit with China).
It’s important to note that this Chinese Ballet Vision fund cites losses of its investment since the outbreak of the war in Gaza, and it seems this is the real issue here. China is heavily investing and trading with Israel. Nothing has changed.
This is not much more than propaganda, the numbers paint a different picture. China-Israel business ties are stronger than ever, despite Gaza.
The question is why and I do not trust the CCP and PLA as far as I can kick them.
This is an objectively good thing.
since the outbreak of the war in Israel, Beijing has classified Israel as a “high-risk area” and imposed a ban on any new Chinese investments in the country,
This is not a moral standing by China, it’s 100% pragmatic deeming Israel a high risk area.
There is no reason to call China “based” or any other such crazy comments we see here.Why isn’t any other country making this pragmatic choice?
A lot of countries have stopped at least some of their dealings with Israel, especially weapons export and import.
Mind you we don’t have an official source that this is true for China, only 1 company that wants to get out of a deal in Israel.As far as I can tell it’s not “especially” weapons export, it’s exclusively weapons export. European arms embargoes are good, but China seems to have gone farther here and stands alone in willing to do a larger general ban. According to the article it’s not just one company, China has declared that Israel is a “red zone” for investors and have prohibited any investment. Though, sure, this might actually just be something being made up for the lawsuit.
The pragmatic choice would be to continue investing in Israel, which is why everyone else still does it.
They don’t care? They don’t have a right over private investments?
true
Wow I rarely say this about Chinese government but based.
Good policy for bad (or at least not principled) reasons. It’s for money. They consider Israel “high risk” because of the war. China doesn’t give a shit about human rights. They send their own Muslims to concentration camps.
True. It’s a state. I can’t think of a time a state did something for purely altruistic reasons.
Could have sworn I saw an article about them curing diabetes the other day:
And I also saw an American tourist use their healthcare system:

Sooooooo
Historically the US funded a lot of important medical research. Do you think they did this for altruistic reasons?
Similarly, healthcare is beneficial to the state to keep workers healthy.
States do many things, good and bad, but none just out of the goodness of their hearts.
It’s also to say they have principles. It’s hard for the USA or Europe to criticize their human rights abuses while continuing to support Israel. It’s a way to highlight western hypocrisy while avoiding risk. Remember they still invest into other high risk countries. High risk can lead to high reward.
I find it easy to criticize both where warranted
Yes, and we should continue to do so. However, lets not pretend that immoral actions by America and Europe don’t undermined their position.
Also, the current tensions in the region threatens China’s supply of cheap oil from Iran.
The literal hellscape on earth North Korea is right next door, they just recently got done executing citizens for watching a TV show
There’s obviously more to this
Source on that?
When they finished executing all those people who watched the show, they executed the people who caught them, for having seen the show too. Then they executed the judges for knowing what a TV show was. Then they executed me for posting about it. (I got better)
What?
Do you really believe North Korea executes people for watching TV?
Yup and it’s not the only country that does.
Do all the countries you believe ridiculous things about happen to be enemies of the US that you’ve never been to?
I was going to add “or met someone from”, but you could probably find a Cuban in Miami who’d say Castro executed their entire family for watching tv.
You’re a dumbass. North Korea"s treatment of human life is well documented Internationally.
They’re just reading the room. They’re not doing it because they think israel is bad, they’re doing it because it’s economically disastrous to do so. Within the next few years the US will be in the same position if it keeps going the way it is. We’ll be too “high risk.”
Why is China the only country reading the room?
Others don’t want to be antisemitic /s (probably they still get a ton of money out of it)
blackmail
China’s the only country Israel can’t blackmail?
I disagree. The epstein files prove how captured the entire american political apparatus is by pissrael. In fact, pissrael has done so, to most Global North countries. China taking this stance is actually pretty big when you consider that and the geopolitical implications of declaring their opposition to the American empire.
The more I learn about China, the more I like. Mostly.
A simple case of killing 2 birds with 1 stone: An economically sane decision can be presented as being ethical to generate good publicity with saps all around the world. Particularly effective now that the USA is in such a bad place that people like to sing China’s praises instead.
Wait, this broken clock has the right time on it
Removed by mod
still better than America
The PRC, a one party state which puts ethnic minorities in internment camps, is better than the democratic USA, which AFAIK hasn’t put ethnic minorities in internment camps since WW2?
Of course the USA is a very flawed country, especially their current government, but it seems to me that the PRC is a pretty repressive regime with less political freedom than the USA.
which AFAIK hasn’t put ethnic minorities in internment camps since WW2?
Oh, I have some news for you…
Nazi goons are literally roaming American streets, arbitrarily executing people and shipping off brown people and other “undesirables” to mystery prisons in other countries.
Fucking China showing how it’s fucking done! Way to go!
This is not a moral standing, the basis is that Israel is deemed too risky.
Yeah you’re probably right about that.
I mean… Tibet, Uighurs, etc
Sorry, Double post.
why can they just sue someone for refusing to buy something
especially when buying it would be illegal
why can they just sue someone for refusing to buy something
From the article:
As part of the agreements, the Chinese fund granted the remaining minority shareholders an option to require it to purchase their remaining shares for about $9.5 million, now valued at roughly $11 million, by early December 2025.
especially when buying it would be illegal
Legality in country A is completely irrelevant for suing someone in country B.
Also, in many countries having a realistic chance of winning the case is not a prerequisite to suing anyone for anything.
