Ali Bagri Keni, Deputy Secretary of Iran's Supreme National Security Council, met today with the Chinese Foreign Minister in Beijing. Wang Li said in this meeting that China supports Iran in protecting its sovereignty and security. A special envoy of China is also going to go to the Persian Gulf region soon and talk with senior officials in these countries in Iran, Oman and Saudi Arabia. China previously played a role in mediating efforts to end the American war and Israel's captives with Iran, but now it seems that with the possibility that the war will start again, after the mid-term elections for the American Congress, senior officials in Beijing are preparing to play a more active role in this area.
