President Xi Jinping told his Iranian counterpart Masoud Pezeshkian on Tuesday that China supported Iran’s right to civilian nuclear energy and opposed the use of force to resolve differences, state media reported.<\/p>\n
“The use of force is not the right way to resolve differences. Communication and dialogue are the right path to achieving lasting peace,” Xi told Pezeshkian during talks in Beijing, according to a readout from state broadcaster CCTV.<\/p>\n
China “respects Iran’s rights to peaceful use of nuclear energy” and seeks a solution to the Iranian nuclear issue “that takes into account the legitimate concerns of all parties”, he said.<\/p>\n
China, a close partner of Iran and its largest trade partner, has said it opposes a move by France, Britain, and Germany that could reimpose sanctions on Tehran.<\/p>\n
Those countries said on Thursday they had invoked the “snapback” mechanism, which initiates a 30-day process for reimposing sanctions on Iran.<\/p>\n
That move came after weeks of warnings over Iran’s alleged breaches of the 2015 agreement with world powers to curb its nuclear program. The sanctions were suspended under the deal.<\/p>\n
Iran suspended its cooperation with the International Atomic Energy Agency, the UN nuclear watchdog, after Israel launched a 12-day war with the country in June.<\/p>\n
Israel sought to destroy Iran’s nuclear capability while the United States staged its own bombing raid during the war.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
