He said that President Xi's remarks aimed at applying the Chinese experience to the Arab world through initiating national development projects that give people hope, dedicate their energy to construction and leave no time for other negative issues such as disputes and terror activities.

Essila sees that Xi's speech at the Arab League provides "a comprehensive Chinese vision" on mutual Chinese-Arab cooperation and proper methods to resolve the Middle East issues.

"Economically, it was clear that Xi had specific initiatives in mind and that China has prepared a lot of projects to invest in the Arab states," the expert told Xinhua.

"If Arab states believe, as China does, that the economic field could strongly affect the political and cultural ones, Arabs will be taking a good path," he said.

The Chinese president arrived in Egypt on Wednesday for a state visit as the second leg of his three-nation Middle East tour.

Mahmoud Allam, former Egyptian ambassador to China, said Xi's visit is "a strong message" that the Chinese leadership attaches great importance to Arab-Chinese ties.

In his speech, Xi called on all conflicting parties to resort to dialogue and political settlement.

"The international community should respect the will and role of those directly involved, the neighboring countries and regional organizations, instead of imposing a solution from the outside," Xi said.

"Xi's speech shows China's keenness on achieving security and stability in the Arab world and on the non-interference of foreign powers in the interests of Arab states," Allam said.

The former ambassador added that Arab states, through their experiences with other big powers, see China as "one of the most reliable states" that they can trust and with whom they can cooperate.

Allam hailed Xi's focus on development as a strategy for resolving Middle East problems, urging Arabs to view the Chinese experience as proof that development is "the proper key to resolving many issues."

"We should admit that many of the ongoing issues in the Arab world were the result of lacking successful development models that rally people behind their leaders," he said.

"Development is a means of mobilizing people toward achieving common interests and overcoming disagreements," Allam said.
