Denouncing US, EU, China: Sanctions Not to Resolve Iranian Nuclear Issue
China's Foreign Ministry considered Thursday that sanctions against Iran can't fundamentally resolve the Iran nuclear dispute.
"We always believe that dialogue and cooperation is the right way to solve the Iranian nuclear issue. Sanctions cannot fundamentally solve the issue," Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Hong Lei said.
Commenting on Western threats against the Islamic Republic, Hong added that "the pressing task now is all parties concerned step up diplomatic efforts."
"We hope the IAEA will be fair and objective, and actively committed to clarifying the salient issues through cooperation with Iran," he said adding that "this is the pressing task at this stage."
Warning against turmoil in the Middle East from action over Iran's nuclear program, Hong denounced the United States and European Union for imposing their own separate sanctions on Iran.
"They should not take steps reaching beyond the UN resolutions," he stressed.
