Referring to the US sanctions against Iran, the Chinese professor sympathized with the Iranian people as they have witnessed various difficulties in the sanctions era but have overcome them.

He said that the Chinese people stand by the Iranians as they exercised solidarity with the Chinese during counter-coronavirus period.
