Tehran(Basirat): Beijing will maintain economic relations with Tehran and is committed to Iran nuclear Deal in spite of pressures from the US government, Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi said.
Yi made the remarks Tuesday in a meeting with the Iranian Foreign Minister
Mohmmad Javad Zarif which was held on the sidelines of the 73rd session of the
United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) annual meetings.
During the meeting, both sides discussed bilateral economic relations.
They also reviewed Iran nuclear deal also known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan
of Action (JCPOA).
Reminding China positions against US pressures, Yi underlined Beijing commitment
to preserve JCPOA.

Iran.
The United Nations General Assembly which is one of the six bodies of the
organization and represents all 193 members of it holds annual meetings in late
September. Attendance of many heads of state, premiers, and foreign ministers of
countries makes the UNGA annual meetings an important venue for the world
leaders to address the most important national, regional, and international
issues in their speeches.
This year, the UNGA annual session started on Sept 18 and runs up to Sept 25.
The gathering also gives an opportunity to world statesmen to hold bilateral and
multilateral meetings on the sidelines of the event.
