China on Tuesday denied selling J-10 fighter jets to Iran, saying the reports were "groundless" and "irresponsible".
Foreign Ministry spokesman Qin Gang made the remarks in response to a reporter's question at a regular press briefing.
"China has never consulted with Iran on the so-called fighter jets issue, and has no consideration in this regard," Qin said.
The Chinese government always takes a prudent and responsible attitude towards arms exports and imposes strict controls over such exports according to China's international obligations and domestic laws and regulations, he said.
