China Criticizes New US Sanctions on Iranian Ports as Dangerous
Kathmandu. The Chinese Foreign Ministry has strongly criticized the US sanctions imposed on Iranian ports, labeling them a "dangerous and irresponsible" move.
These sanctions were implemented on Monday, one day after peace talks between the US and Iran in Pakistan failed. Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Guo Jiakun stated at a press conference that the move would "further escalate tensions and undermine the already fragile ceasefire."
He remarked, "This is a dangerous and irresponsible act." China has expressed concern over this move amidst rising tensions in the Strait of Hormuz and the Gulf region.
According to BBC diplomatic correspondent James Landale, China, being a major importer of Iranian oil, has a vested interest in seeing this conflict resolved to restore stability to the international market.
