On June 14, 2025, Member of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee and Foreign Minister Wang Yi had a phone call with Iranian Foreign Minister Seyed Abbas Araghchi.

Seyed Abbas Araghchi briefed Wang Yi on the latest developments in the regional situation, saying that Israel's recent brazen attack on Iran caused casualties among Iranian military personnel and civilians, especially the attack on Iran's nuclear facilities, which seriously violated international law. The military operation by the Israeli side is highly dangerous and may drag the entire region into all-out war. He expressed his hope that the international community would voice a unified call for urging Israel to cease its military operations. Seyed Abbas Araghchi thanked China for its consistent understanding and support of Iran's position and expressed confidence that China will play an even more important role in promoting regional peace and stability.

Wang Yi said, China publicly stated its position immediately after Israel's attack on Iran. China explicitly condemns Israel's violation of Iran's sovereignty, security and territorial integrity, and firmly opposes the reckless attacks targeting Iranian officials and causing civilian casualties. China supports Iran in safeguarding its national sovereignty, defending its legitimate rights and interests, and ensuring the safety of its people. Israel's actions seriously violate the purposes and principles of the United Nations Charter and the basic norms governing international relations. In particular, Israel's attacks on Iran's nuclear facilities have set a dangerous precedent with potentially catastrophic consequences. China supports the international community in upholding justice and speaking out as soon as possible. China also urges the countries that have influence over Israel to make concrete efforts to restore peace.

Wang Yi stated that at present, the regional situation is at a critical and crucial moment. China is ready to maintain communication with Iran and other relevant parties to continue playing a constructive role in de-escalating the situation. He expressed the hope that the Iranian side will ensure the security and safety of Chinese institutions and personnel. Seyed Abbas Araghchi said that the Iranian side is willing to maintain communication with the Chinese side and do its utmost to ensure the security and safety of Chinese institutions and personnel.
