China says it opposes foreign ‘interference’ in Iran
China says it opposes foreign “interference” in other countries after US President Donald Trump threatened to intervene militarily if Tehran killed protesters.
“We always oppose interference in other countries’ internal affairs,” foreign ministry spokeswoman Mao Ning tells a regular news conference when asked about Trump’s comments.
“We call on all parties to do more things conducive to peace and stability in the Middle East,” she adds.
