China seeks to help facilitate a wave of reconciliation across the Middle East. Its efforts, however, may help Iran progress toward acquiring a nuclear weapon.
"We have always wanted a return of all parties to full compliance with the 2015 nuclear deal," the country's Foreign Minister Hossein Amirabdollahian told reporters.
“Rumors about a nuclear deal, interim or otherwise, are false and misleading,” State Department spokesman Matthew Miller told journalists in June.

Israel and a bipartisan consensus of Congress and the American people wanted a nuclear deal that ultimately ended Iran’s nuclear weapon program forever.
Effectively, the EU is telling the Islamic Republic that it will not abide by a key provision of a nuclear deal with the United States.
Israeli officials warned that Iran and the US are nearing a “less for less” deal, by which Iran would stop advancing its nuclear program, but not reverse it.
The representatives pointed to "Iran's significant noncompliance" with the nuclear agreement.
Such a deal would mean some partial, but not full, nuclear concessions by Iran, in exchange for some partial, but not full, sanctions relief by the West.
