Western media are making every attempt to use the Chinese State Councilor and Defense Minister General Wei Fenghe’s visit to Tehran to indoctrinate the false notion that the 25-year partnership agreement signed between Iran and China has a military nature.
Heading a high-ranking defense and military delegation, Wei arrived in the Iranian capital on Wednesday and held talks with the country’s senior officials, including Defense Minister Brigadier General Muhammad Reza Ashtiani.
“Underscoring the direct connection of this trip to the implementation of the 25-year joint cooperation agreement between Iran and China and trying to induce the false statement that this roadmap has a military nature is one of the psychological tricks that has become the main focus of Western media propaganda in this regard,” Nour News, affiliated to Iran’s Supreme National Security Council (SNSC), wrote.
“The 25-year roadmap for cooperation between Iran and China has a completely economic and trade nature, and accordingly, various agreements between the two countries should be prepared and signed and implemented after legal processes,” it added.
Nour News said a series of developments since the U.S. expulsion from the region attests to the fact that Washington, with the complicity of London, seeks to establish new military relations in the region with the aim of restraining independent states and giving a new role to the Zionist regime in carrying out proxy missions.
The outlet stressed that Iran and China, as two regional powers, have significant indigenous defensive capabilities, and increasing their development can be an important component in pursuing the two countries’ defense goals.
“Given Iran’s consistent strategy of pursuing active security and defense diplomacy with its neighbors and regional powers, increasing defense interactions with China can be a precautionary measure against foreign intervention in the region while enhancing the two countries’ common understanding of regional developments and increasing synergy,” Nour News noted.
Iran, Russia, and China in January held joint military drills in the north of the Indian Ocean, with vessels from the three countries hitting pre-determined targets at sea.
