Chinese Ambassador Sun Lei says that the US launching “major attacks against Iran” has “once again” pushed the region “into a dangerous precipice”.

Sun made the comments after US envoy Mike Waltz claimed that China was not doing enough to stop the flow of goods to Iran and Yemen, a claim Sun said was “completely baseless”.

“China exercises strict control over such exports,” he said.

“The priority now is for the US to stop creating new conflicts and turmoil in the Middle East.”
