Iran Press/ Asia: “The current situation between China and the U.S. is something the Chinese side does not want to see,” the foreign ministry said in an online statement.
“The responsibility lies entirely with the U.S. side,” the statement added. We again urge the U.S. side to immediately revoke its relevant wrong decisions, to create necessary conditions for the two countries’ relationship to return to normal,” it said.
The announcement came after the US ordered China to close its consulate in Houston.
Beijing had condemned the decision and warned of firm countermeasures.
The consulate, which was established in 1985, is one of five the U.S. has in mainland China, in addition to the embassy in Beijing.
