China believes that Iran can effectively manage the situation and prevent further turmoil in the region.

Beijing stated on Tuesday, April 16th that it believes Iran can effectively manage the situation and prevent further turmoil in the region while protecting its sovereignty and dignity.

According to the official Xinhua News Agency, Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi emphasized in a telephone call with his Iranian counterpart, Hossein Amir-Abdollahian, that Tehran has taken limited actions for self-defense.

The Chinese Foreign Minister condemned Israel’s attack on the Iranian consulate in Damascus as unacceptable.

Hossein Amir-Abdollahian, in the same phone call, stressed Iran’s awareness of regional tensions, stating that Iran seeks self-restraint and does not intend to escalate tensions further.

While Tehran insists it has no intention of continuing hostilities, the Israeli military is committed to responding to any Iranian attack.

This comes as the United States and Western countries, in defense of Israel’s right to self-defense, have called for Tel Aviv’s self-restraint to ensure their own security.
