Israel Matzav: Surprise: China still opposes sanctions

Surprise: China still opposes sanctions

Remember how China and Russia were supposed to be on 'our side' after the IAEA Board of Governors vote? Well, earlier on Tuesday, I reported that Russia isn't on 'our side' and now I can report that China isn't on 'our side' either.

Speaking at a regular press conference, the Chinese spokesperson said that sanctions "are not the goal" of new UN pressure on Iran. "We should properly resolve this issue through dialogue," he said. "All parties should step up diplomatic efforts."

What could go wrong?
