Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi and Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi have held high-level talks in Beijing to address the escalating situation in the Middle East. According to a report by the Xinhua news agency, the meeting focused on strengthening bilateral cooperation and addressing pressing regional security concerns.
Operative Information Center-OMM reports that the two diplomats discussed a wide range of issues of mutual interest, as well as the broader international agenda. While specific details of the closed-door session were not fully disclosed, both sides emphasized the importance of diplomatic dialogue in maintaining regional stability.
The meeting between Wang Yi and Abbas Araghchi takes place ahead of a highly anticipated summit between US President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping, scheduled for May 14-15. The ongoing conflict between the United States and Iran is expected to be a primary topic of discussion during that summit, as global powers seek to navigate the complex geopolitical landscape in the Middle East. China has historically maintained a strategic partnership with Iran, often acting as a key mediator in regional disputes involving Western interests.
