It is significant that Iran attended the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) summit last week at a time when the US withdrew from the 2015 Iran nuclear deal, known as JCPOA, and reimposed sanctions against Tehran, says a Chinese newspaper.

The other goal is to seek political and moral support from China and other SCO member states for the nuclear deal, Han Jianwei wrote for the Global Times on Tuesday.
