China announced once again that it supports the settlement of the disputes between Iran and the United States through negotiations.
On Wednesday, November 4, China's Foreign Ministry announced this position and added that the country is ready to expand its talks with Iran, Saudi Arabia and other countries in the region.
🔸 China's Ministry of Foreign Affairs previously warned of the possibility of renewed US military or hostage attacks on Iran after the mid-term congressional elections.
Mao Ning, the spokesman for this ministry, said Tuesday in response to an AFP question: "China believes that military measures are not a solution and only lead to an escalation of tensions; a situation that is not beneficial to either side."
He expressed hope that the parties involved will resolve their differences through dialogue and negotiation and that peace and tranquility will return to the Middle East and the Persian Gulf region as soon as possible. Beijing's new positions are being announced after Wang Yi, China's foreign minister, held separate meetings with Ali Bagheri Kenny, deputy secretary of the Supreme National Security Council of the Salami Republic, and Musaed bin Mohammed al-Ivan, Saudi Arabia's national security adviser, in Beijing on Monday.
