The attack on Iran and the assassination of Iran's supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei violated the purposes and principles of the UN Charter and the basic norms of international relations. This is stated in the statement of the Chinese Foreign Ministry.
The statement of the Chinese ministry emphasizes that the assassination of Iran's supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei seriously violated Iran's sovereignty and security.
"China expresses its strong protest in this regard and strongly condemns it," the statement said.
Recall, Ali Khamenei died on the morning of February 28 as a result of a missile attack by the United States and Israel. After the death of the supreme leader, the Iranian government declared a 40-day mourning and a non-working week throughout the country. The IRGC and the Iranian army have promised to avenge Khamenei's death.
