China’s Foreign Ministry on Sunday condemned the US strikes on Iran’s nuclear sites, calling the action a violation of the UN Charter and a serious escalation of Middle East tensions.

“This move seriously violates the United Nations Charter and worsens tensions in the Middle East,” the ministry said in a statement.

Beijing urged all parties, especially Israel, to halt attacks immediately and return to dialogue and negotiations to prevent further destabilization.

France will hold an emergency defense cabinet meeting Sunday to address regional security following US airstrikes on Iran’s nuclear sites, the French presidency announced.

France distanced itself from the US strikes on Iranian nuclear sites on Sunday, warning against further escalation and reaffirming its opposition to a nuclear-armed Iran.

Paris was not involved in the attacks or their planning, Foreign Minister Jean-Noël Barrot said.

“We noted with concern the US strikes carried out against three Iranian nuclear program sites,” Barrot said.

“France has repeatedly expressed its very firm opposition to Iran acquiring nuclear weapons,” he added and called on all sides to avoid steps that “could lead to an extension of the conflict.”
