China is willing to build stronger ties with Iran and believes that the use of force cannot resolve the issues surrounding Iran, Zhai Jun, China's special envoy to the Middle East, said in talks with Iranian officials.

Noting that this year marks the 55th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations and the 10-year anniversary of the establishment of the China-Iran comprehensive strategic partnership, Zhai said China is ready to take this as an opportunity to make new progress in bilateral relations.

China also believes that the use of force cannot resolve the issues surrounding Iran, and the sovereignty and security of all countries should be respected, Zhai added.
