@chinaembassyinmaldives: On June 17, 2026, 🇨🇳FM Wang Yi took a phone call from 🇮🇷Iranian FM Seyed Abbas Araghchi. Wang Yi said that China welcomes the signing of the first-phase MoU between Iran and the US. Facts have proved that force and power cannot solve problems, and dialogue and negotiation are the correct choices. The dawn of peace has emerged, and the key to the next step is for all parties to truly implement their commitments and eliminate various distractions. The issue of navigation through the Strait of Hormuz should be properly addressed and the common concerns of the international community should be appropriately responded to. China supports Iran in improving relations with regional countries and exploring the joint building of a regional security framework. China is ready to strengthen communication and coordination with Iran, and while consolidating and deepening China-Iran relations, will continue to contribute to maintaining and promoting regional peace and stability.
