They have put forward a five-point peace proposal to end the West Asia war, including a call for safe passage of ships through the Strait of Hormuz. ADVERTISEMENTThe peace proposal was put forward after Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi held talks on the Iran situation with visiting Pakistani Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar. Both countries have called for talks to end the US-Israeli war on Iran, now in the fifth week. Islamabad has previously said it is ready to facilitate peace talks between Washington and Tehran. "Dialogue and diplomacy are the only feasible ways to resolve conflicts," China and Pakistan said in a five-point initiative put forward during the meeting.
