BEIJING (Reuters) China urged the diplomatic resolution of Iran's nuclear standoff on Thursday, a day after the United States warned that Tehran was defying the international community by resuming uranium enrichment.

China has demurred, saying it would like talks between Iran and the EU trio to resume, but has not said it will try to block any move to report Iran to the Council. Russia, while sharing China's opposition to U.N. sanctions on Iran, has moved closer to the West's view on referral.
