"China supports Russia in hosting the current trilateral expert consultations, and will make additional efforts to foster a diplomatic settlement of the Iranian nuclear issue," Lin Jian said.
The diplomat also stressed that China "will continue to interact with relevant officials and assist in the development of a solution to the Iranian nuclear issue that would take into account reasonable concerns of all parties."
