Iran’s nuclear programme is a grave threat to international security, and Canada has been consistently clear that Iran can never be allowed to develop a nuclear weapon.

While U.S. military action taken last night was designed to alleviate that threat, the situation in the Middle East remains highly volatile. Stability in the region is a priority.

Canada calls on parties to return immediately to the negotiating table and reach a diplomatic solution to end this crisis. As G7 leaders agreed in Kananaskis, the resolution of the Iranian crisis should lead to a broader de-escalation of hostilities in the Middle East, including a ceasefire in Gaza.

That's the point. From an international relations standpoint there's no major issue with China where humans rights violations are concerned. Since the don't arm groups outside their borders, there doesn't need to be an international response for that because there's no international threat. The tensions with China are mostly with respect to Taiwan and trade.
