Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi called on his Israeli counterpart, Gideon Sa'ar, to halt military strikes on Iranian territory during a telephone conversation on Tuesday. The top diplomat warned that such actions risk a dangerous escalation in the region, particularly as significant progress is being made in negotiations regarding the nuclear deal.
Minister Wang emphasized that further military operations could undermine the delicate diplomatic balance and fueled concerns over broader conflict. The warning underscores Beijing's growing apprehension regarding the potential for direct confrontation between Israel and Iran to destabilize the Middle East during a critical period of international dialogue.
