China calls for more understanding and support from the international community to its fight against terrorism, a spokeswoman of China's top legislature said Tuesday.
Fu Ying, spokeswoman for the second session of the 12th National People's Congress, made the remarks at a press conference prior to the opening of the session slated for Wednesday.
Terrorism has no borders, and China hopes for more international understanding and cooperation as it steps up anti-terrorism efforts, said Fu.
Fu condemned the terrorist attack in the southwestern city of Kunming in Yunnan Province on Saturday that killed 29 people and injured 143, saying the mobs were "inhuman" killers.
The Ministry of Public Security said in a statement on Monday that the terrorist gang led by Abdurehim Kurban was responsible for the Kunming attack.
Police shot and killed four of them and captured an injured female attacker at the scene, and later captured another three suspects.
