China has offered to help restrain Iran’s nuclear plans ahead of an expected Washington visit by President Hu Jintao in April, Illinois Republican Congressman Mark Kirk told reporters in Beijing yesterday. The chairman of China’s National People’s Congress, Wu Bangguo "agreed that they (Iran) should not have nuclear weapons, and agreed to work with the United States and especially the EU3" on Iran, Kirk said. Wu is a member of the nine-member Communist Party Standing Committee that makes the country’s key decisions.
