BREAKING NEWS! AFP reports: China opposes any actions against Iran's new leader. China stated that Iran's appointment of Mojtaba Khamenei as the new Supreme Leader, succeeding his late father, is an internal affair of Iran.

Comment: China's position is clear: it clearly recognizes the emergence of Iran's new leader as an internal matter and a constitutional process, and firmly opposes any military actions or political subversion by external forces against Iran's new leader. This not only upholds the principle of non-interference in sovereignty, but also strongly resists hegemonic actions in the Middle East turmoil. Any attempt to assassinate, subvert, or coerce Iran is a serious violation of international law and international principles.
