Bright Prospects for Nuclear Cooperation With China

China and Iran plan to enhance cooperation in the field of energy, particularly in the peaceful use of nuclear power, Tehran's ambassador to Beijing said on Wednesday. 
"Energy is one of the most important areas of cooperation between the two countries…and both sides will step up their international collaboration in all areas, including peaceful nuclear energy," Ali Asghar Khaji told a seminar on Sino-Iran civil nuclear cooperation under the Iran nuclear agreement, which was held in Beijing, IRNA reported.  
Several senior officials including Behrouz Kamalvandi, spokesperson for the Atomic Energy Organization of Iran, and Yiren Wang, vice chairman of the China Atomic Energy Authority, attended the meeting. 
The ambassador hailed Beijing's support for the 2015 accord, formally known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action, which was signed between Iran and six world powers -- the US, Britain, Russia, France, China plus Germany.
