BEIJING: The Chinese Foreign Ministry said on Tuesday that imposing sanctions and pressure on Iran would neither help to resolve its nuclear issue nor be conducive to the resumption of the international talks on the issue.

Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Jiang Yu made the remarks in response to a question on China's position on imposing further sanctions on Iran.

US President Barack Obama has set a late September deadline for Tehran to initiate multilateral talks over its disputed nuclear issue, or face further sanctions.

Jiang said China hoped various sides would take advantage of the current favorable chances and beef up diplomatic efforts to resume the international talks on the issue as soon as possible.

Vice foreign ministers from China, the United States, Russia, Britain and France, plus Germany met in Frankfurt on the Iranian nuclear issue last week.

According to Jiang, all the six parties in the meeting agreed to resolve the issue through diplomatic efforts.
