HONG KONG, Nov 9 (Reuters) – China is willing to pursue stronger ties with Iran, China’s special envoy to the Middle East Zhai Jun said in talks with Ali Bagheri Kani, deputy secretary of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council.
Zhai met Kani in Iran, according to a readout from China’s foreign ministry on Monday. He is visiting Iran, Oman and Saudi Arabia this month, as China steps up efforts to ease tensions in the Middle East.
