China strongly condemned the attacks on Brussels Tuesday, a Foreign Ministry spokesperson was quoted as saying by Xinhua.

China firmly opposes terrorism in all forms, said spokesperson Hua Chunying in a statement, offering deep condolences to the families of the victims.

"The Chinese people stand with the Belgians and the Europeans," she said.

China is willing to enhance cooperation with Belgium and the international community to jointly face the threats and challenges posed by terrorism to safeguard world peace and stability, said Hua.

She said the Chinese Foreign Ministry and the Chinese Embassy in Belgium are closely monitoring the latest developments to see if there were any Chinese nationals among the victims.
