International Relations

The Chinese and their good friends the Iranians:

Visiting Chinese Foreign Minister Yang Jiechi said on Tuesday that China supports a peaceful solution to Iran's nuclear issue through diplomatic negotiations.

"China stands for the maintenance of the international non-proliferation system and supports a peaceful solution to Iran's nuclear issue through diplomatic negotiations," Yang said during his meeting with Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.

China believes that Iran has the rights to peacefully use nuclear power and appreciates Iran's repeated declaration of no intention to develop nuclear weapons and its cooperation with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), Yang said.

First, everyone hopes for a peaceful solution to Iran's nuclear issue. And China, like Iran, believes in international non-profliferation so long as it doesn't apply to China. Don't blame them considering their good friends are North Korea and Iran. I'd want nukes too.
