Foreign Ministry Spokesman Mao Ning presided over the regular press conference. An AFP reporter asked, is China worried that the US or Israel might resume military attacks on Iran after the US midterm elections? Mao Ning said that Foreign Minister Wang Yi has detailed China's position on the situation in the Middle East and the Gulf. China has always believed that military means will not help resolve the issue; they will only exacerbate the escalation of tension and are not in the interests of any party. We hope that the parties concerned will adhere to the peaceful option, resolve disputes through dialogue and negotiations, and promote the restoration of peace and tranquillity in the Middle East and the Gulf region as soon as possible.
