According to Iran's state news agency IRNA, Araghchi stressed the importance of deepening cooperation between the two countries across economic and trade fields during the meeting.
The remarks add to a series of recent statements from Iranian officials emphasizing closer ties with China, as Tehran continues to look to Beijing as a key economic partner amid ongoing Western sanctions that have limited its access to other markets.
