Iran Press/ Iran news: Iran's Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian denounced the US veto of a UN Security Council resolution that demanded an end to the genocide in Gaza while appreciating China's constructive efforts to establish peace and stability in the region.
He also underlined the need to play an active role in stopping the war on Gaza.
“The security of the region is important for all of us, and to this end, the Islamic Republic of Iran has held several rounds of consultations with regional countries”, the top Iranian diplomat said.
He once again stressed that the war has expanded in the region and if the attacks on Gaza are not stopped immediately, there is a possibility that all the region would be engaged and things will spiral out of control. Amir-Abdollahian maintained that unfortunately, the US side does not soundly understand the danger posed by the spillover of the war across the region.
He added that the political life of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, an ally of the White House, is only intertwined with the continuation of the war and genocide, but the current situation in the region is not sustainable.
The Chinese foreign minister also voiced regret over the veto of the ceasefire resolution by the US.
Wang Yi said the establishment of a ceasefire and immediately sending humanitarian aid to Gaza are important for China.
He expressed hope that the upcoming meeting of the UN General Assembly will be an opportunity to establish a ceasefire in the region.
Amir-Abdollahian and Wang Yi at the end of their discussions expressed satisfaction with the trend of bilateral ties. They underscored the need to continue consultations and strengthen multilateral cooperation. 219
