China has rejected allegations of military cooperation with Iran, calling them false.

Axar.az reports that China’s Permanent Representative to the United Nations, Fu Cong, made the remarks.

Fu Cong also stressed that "The most urgent issue is to keep the ceasefire. And the ceasefire needs to last, and ⁠there has to be a good-faith negotiation between the two sides."

He noted concerns over suggestions that the ceasefire could be temporary and warned against renewed hostilities.

"I think the international community should be mobilized and raise our voices against the resumption of fighting."

Separately, he rejected claims made by some U.S. officials regarding China’s alleged military cooperation with Iran as “false.”
