Iran informed China on Wednesday about ongoing nuclear negotiations with the US, expressing a commitment to diplomacy despite past setbacks and urging stronger bilateral cooperation under their 25-year strategic agreement.
Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi met with China's First Vice Premier Ding Xuexiang in Beijing on Wednesday to discuss the ongoing indirect negotiations between Tehran and Washington regarding Iran’s nuclear programme. The talks come ahead of a third round of discussions between Araghchi and US envoy Steve Witkoff, scheduled for Saturday.
According to Iranian media outlet Mehr, Araghchi emphasised that Iran remains committed to resolving issues through diplomacy “with goodwill and seriousness,” despite having faced setbacks in previous negotiations. He called for the acceleration of the 25-year strategic cooperation agreement signed between Iran and China, highlighting its importance in strengthening bilateral ties.
Araghchi also stressed the necessity of greater collaboration among like-minded nations to resist what he described as “unilateralism and global bullying.” He reaffirmed Iran’s commitment to boosting relations with Beijing and supporting multilateralism.
The Iranian official further relayed Tehran’s position on the situation in the occupied Palestinian territories, describing Israeli actions as genocide. He also criticised ongoing US strikes in Yemen and called for an urgent international response to prevent what he termed “the law of the jungle” from prevailing in international affairs.
China’s First Vice Premier Ding echoed the call for strengthened cooperation. As reported by state-run Xinhua News, he said China is prepared to work with Iran to enhance strategic coordination, promote high-level diplomatic engagement, and implement the goals outlined by both countries' leaders.
Ding underscored Beijing’s intent to maintain political trust and foster sustainable development in the two nations' comprehensive strategic partnership.
