BEIJING, April ‌13 (Reuters) - Chinese Foreign ​Minister Wang Yi on Monday said ⁠the current ceasefire between the U.S. and Iran is "very ​fragile" and urged the global ‌community to "unequivocally oppose any actions that undermine the ceasefire or escalate ⁠the confrontation."

Wang made ⁠the remarks during a phone call with his Pakistani counterpart, Mohammad Ishaq Dar, Wang's ‌ministry said. The priority is ⁠to prevent the ‌resumption of hostilities ​and "to preserve the hard-won momentum of ceasefire," Wang said.

China ‌would be pleased to ​see Pakistan ⁠playing a greater role ‌in helping ⁠resolve the conflict, Wang said, adding that Beijing too stands ready ​to make ‌its contributions.
