Iran-China cooperation in the region

 

Iranian president referred to Iran-China cooperation in the region, saying: "Both issues are important. You know that the reason why the US President Donald Trump failed against Iran in the international community was because of Iran's cooperation and coordination with other countries, so in every issue that Trump went to the UN General Assembly, he could not approve anything, so we continue to have close relations with all countries of the world, especially with China, Russia, the European Union, and our neighbors."
