Chinese FM calls for actions from UN Security Council after US’ strike on Iranian nuclear facilities

In response to a media inquiry regarding the draft UN Security Council resolution reportedly put forward by Russia, China, and Pakistan on the situation in Iran, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Guo Jiakun said on Monday that the US strike on Iran's nuclear facilities constitutes a serious violation of the purposes and principles of the UN Charter and has further intensified tensions in the Middle East. He stressed that the Security Council can't remain inactive in the face of such developments.

Guo noted that the draft resolution submitted by China, Russia, and Pakistan calls for an immediate and unconditional ceasefire, the protection of civilians, compliance with international law, and the initiation of dialogue and negotiations, adding that the proposal represents a voice of justice and reflects the strong will of the international community. 

"China hopes all Security Council members will support the draft and work together to ensure that the Council fulfills its responsibility in maintaining international peace and security," said Guo.
