TEHRAN (Tasnim) – Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Saeed Khatibzadeh on Monday denied reports of blocked Iranian assets in China.
Speaking at a weekly press conference, Khatibzadeh rejected the "untrue” reports about relations between Tehran and Beijing, saying, "No money is blocked in China.” He said, "Many reports are incorrect. We are in constant talks with the Chinese.” There are resources in China that are being used for Iran’s economic cycle, the spokesman said, adding that those resources are different from the frozen Iranian assets in Japan, Iraq and elsewhere.
