Beijing urges joint efforts to ease Iran nuclear issue

All parties should work together to ease the Iran nuclear issue and tensions in the Gulf instead of letting the risk of conflict grow unchecked, State Councilor and Foreign Minister Wang Yi said in Beijing on Tuesday.

Parties involved should firmly safeguard the Iran nuclear deal, Wang said, adding that the complete and effective implementation of the deal is the only practical and effective way out for the Iran nuclear issue.

Wang made the remarks in a joint news conference with visiting Syrian Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Walid Muallem following their meeting.
