On Tuesday, September 31, the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs officially announced its opposition to the "unilateral" sanctions imposed on Iranian airlines by Washington.

Gao Jiakun, spokesperson for the Chinese Foreign Ministry, stated at a press conference that Beijing considers such U.S. sanctions to be "illegal" and opposes their implementation.

This stance comes a day after U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Basset said on Monday that all Iranian airlines would be "grounded worldwide" starting September 23 (October 1).

In an interview with CNBC, he said: "When Iranian planes land at an airport, you cannot provide them with fuel or airport services, and you cannot sell them tickets; otherwise, you will be excluded from the dollar system."
