China Calls for Peaceful Iran Resolution09.09.2006, 12:02 PM
Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao said Saturday that the international standoff
over Iran's disputed nuclear program must be resolved peacefully and he
cautioned against the imposition of sanctions.
Wen stressed his country doesn't want Iran to develop nuclear weapons and
would "make tireless efforts" for a negotiated solution.
"That said, diplomatic efforts will be a long process," he told reporters
on the sidelines of a summit with the European Union. "To mount pressure
or impose sanctions will not necessarily bring about a peaceful solution."
His comments came as EU foreign policy chief Javier Solana met with Iranian
nuclear negotiator Ali Larijani in Vienna, Austria, about Tehran's defiance
of international demands that it give up uranium enrichment.
