BEIJING, June 13 (Xinhua) — China opposes any action that violates Iran’s sovereignty, security and territorial integrity, as well as the expansion of the conflict and escalation of tensions, Foreign Ministry spokesman Lin Jian said on Friday.
The diplomat said at a regular press conference that China is closely monitoring Israel’s attack on Iran and is deeply concerned about the potential serious consequences of such actions.
A sudden re-escalation of the situation in the region does not serve the interests of either side, he stressed. The spokesman added that China calls on relevant parties to take actions conducive to regional peace and stability and avoid further escalation of tensions.
Lin Jian also said China is willing to play a constructive role in helping to ease the situation. -0-
