War is not a solution to the Iranian nuclear problem, and preemptive strikes apparently do not have authenticity, Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi stated on Friday, stressing that the abuse of military force will just result in additional dispute and collect more hatred.Wang, also a member of the Political Bureau of the Communist Party of China Central Committee, made the remarks at a joint press conference with his French counterpart, Jean-Noel Barrot, in Paris.When inquired about the scenario in the Middle East, Wang stated the Iranian nuclear problem could have worked as an example of solving international disputes through discussion and settlement.
Nevertheless, it is now falling into a new round of the Middle East crisis.
China is sorry for to see what is happening, he said, adding that lessons need to be thoroughly reflected upon.Chinas position on the Iranian nuclear concern is clear and consistent, Wang stated, noting that China attaches significance to the duplicated public dedications made by Irans top leader that Iran will not establish nuclear weapons.
At the same time, China appreciates Irans right to peaceful usage of nuclear energy as a signatory to the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons, Wang said.On this basis, the celebrations concerned can speed up settlements on a new international arrangement to settle the Iranian nuclear problem and location Irans nuclear activities completely under the rigorous supervision and defense of the International Atomic Energy Agency, Wang noted, stressing that the course to peace lies ahead, and history will evaluate the genuineness of all parties.The current military dispute in between Israel and Iran need to not be repeated, Wang said, including that the United States has set an unfavorable precedent by freely battle the nuclear centers of a sovereign nation.Wang alerted that if such actions set off a nuclear catastrophe, the whole world would bear the consequences.The claim of peace through strength is based on the logic of power politics, Wang said, questioning that if strength alone determines ideal and wrong, what then would become of guidelines and justice?Strength can not bring real peace, he said.
Rather, it might well open a Pandoras box, Wang added, asking how less powerful countries, especially little and medium-sized nations, are supposed to survive.The true resolution of the Iranian nuclear problem can not evade the core of the Middle East problem, particularly the Palestinian problem, Wang said, adding that the humanitarian disaster in Gaza must not continue any longer.The Palestinian issue need to not be marginalized again, the legitimate aspirations of the Arab people need to be fulfilled as soon as possible, and the just voice of the broader Islamic world should be hearkened, Wang said.The two-state solution remains the only sensible way to break the cycle of chaos in the Middle East, and the worldwide neighborhood should take more concrete and reliable actions to advance it, he said.China and France, both as permanent members of the UN Security Council, need to promote justice, take responsibility, assistance fixing conflicts through dialogue and negotiation, oppose any double standards, and identify their own positions and policies based on the right and incorrect of the matter, Wang said.The United Nations and its Security Council should play their due role in promoting peace, Wang said, adding that China is willing to deal with France to make constant efforts to this end.
