In response to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s assertions that China has supplied Iran with specific components for missile manufacturing, a Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson addressed the claims on Tuesday. Netanyahu had expressed his displeasure regarding the alleged support during an interview.
Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Guo Jiakun made it clear that China has consistently communicated its stance on such matters. Emphasizing the country’s commitment to international obligations, Guo reiterated that China is focused on ending conflicts and promoting peace in global affairs.
Guo also rejected the accusations made by Netanyahu, describing them as groundless and lacking substantiation. The spokesperson stressed that China, as a responsible major nation, remains dedicated to de-escalating tensions and maintaining stability.
China’s official response highlights its ongoing efforts to clarify its role and actions on the international stage, particularly concerning sensitive geopolitical issues like missile manufacturing and support to Iran. The comments from the Foreign Ministry underline China’s position against accepting unverified allegations that might disrupt peace efforts.
