I appreciate President Xi Jinping’s thoughtful and responsible support for a return to the Islamabad Memorandum of Understanding and for resolving differences through dialogue and diplomacy.

Iran shares this approach and underscores the importance of returning to that understanding, honoring the commitments already agreed upon, and creating the conditions necessary for serious, substantive, and results-oriented negotiations to move forward.

The convergence of views between Tehran and Beijing on respect for national sovereignty, de-escalation, and the preservation of regional peace and stability provides a strong basis for continued constructive cooperation.
