JAKARTA - Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi reiterated his opposition to a military attack on Iran in a telephone conversation with Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Saar.
Citing the Xinhua news agency, Tuesday, March 3, Wang also told Saar that China advocated resolving problems through "dialogue and consultation".
"Recent Iran-US negotiations have shown clear progress... Unfortunately, this process has been interrupted by gunfire," Wang said.
Emphasizing opposing the Israeli-US military attack on Iran, Wang said China called for an immediate cessation of military operations to prevent the conflict from spreading further and getting out of control.
"Violence cannot really solve the problem - on the contrary, it will only bring new problems and severe adverse impacts," he said.
China, a close partner of Iran, has previously called for a ceasefire in the Israel-US conflict against Iran.
China also condemned the killing of supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei in a joint Israeli-US attack on Saturday, February 28, as a "serious violation".
