Beijing says the bombing of the Iranian facilities violates the UN Charter and its principles
In a brief statement on Sunday night, the Chinese foreign ministry said the bombing of the facilities, which were under the supervision of the International Atomic Energy Agency, seriously violated the United Nations Charter and its principles.
It called on all parties, especially Israel, to cease fire as soon as possible, ensure the safety of civilians and start dialogue.
“China is willing to work with the international community to uphold justice and restore peace and stability in the Middle East,” the ministry said.
The call came hours after US President Donald Trump announced that the US military had conducted the bombings, calling the strikes a “spectacular military success” and pledging more attacks if Tehran did not stand down.
