Iran's FM says China must stay fully briefed on US talks

Iran considers it essential to keep China fully updated on its talks with the United States, said Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi, who is in China to deliver a message to the Chinese officials.

He described China and Russia as “strategic partners and close friends who have supported Tehran in difficult times.”

He said Iran would maintain close consultation with China moving forward.

“We will definitely continue our consultations with China as a member of the Security Council, a member of the IAEA Board of Governors, and a country with experience in the nuclear issue,” Araghchi added.
