China’s foreign ministry on Friday has not elaborated on Beijing’s decision to block the UN ban that India had sought, on Masood Azhar, head of the Pakistan based Jaish-e-Mohammad (JeM) group.

“I have repeated a number of times, when it comes to the listing matter of the UN Security Council 1267 Committee, we believe it should conform with relevant Security Council resolutions and the Committee’srules of procedure,” Chinese foreign ministry spokesperson, Hua Chunying earlier said, prior to China’s decision on Friday to block the JeM chief’s inclusion in the US Security Council
