China tells Iran to show 'flexibility and sincerity'
Iran needs to show "flexibility and sincerity" over its nuclear program, China's Foreign Ministry said Tuesday, as tensions rise ahead of the release of a new report on its atomic activities by a UN agency.
Spokesman Hong Lei said China is firmly opposed to any use of force against Iran to prevent it from acquiring an atomic weapon. "China always holds that the Iranian nuclear issue should be properly solved through dialogue and cooperation," Hong told a daily news briefing. (AP)
