China's Foreign Minister expressed support for preserving Iran's sovereignty and dignity, and for improving its ties with Gulf and regional states, amid ongoing nuclear negotiations between Iran and the United States, according to i24NEWS.
China's top diplomat voiced support for Iran's sovereignty and regional outreach during the ongoing nuclear talks with Washington, according to i24NEWS. The statement, attributed to the Chinese Foreign Minister, explicitly backs Iran's position amid the sensitive negotiations and encourages improved ties between Tehran and Gulf as well as regional states. The comment comes as indirect US-Iran nuclear talks continue, with Beijing positioning itself as a diplomatic backer of Iran's negotiating stance. No further details on the specific round of talks or Chinese mediation were reported.
This development follows broader diplomatic maneuvering around the nuclear file. As The Zioneer has previously reported, Iranian officials have warned of global escalation and disputed US casualty figures, indicating ongoing friction. China's public endorsement of Iran's sovereignty and regional normalization represents a clear diplomatic signal amid the multi-party negotiations.
