This article analyses the role and influence of the People’s Republic of China (PRC) on diplomatic mediation between Saudi Arabia and Iran. The paper examines the historical contradictions between the states, the prerequisites for diplomatic settlement and mediation by other states, and the importance of China’s involvement in the settlement process. In addition, the article discovers the impact of  negotiations between Saudi Arabia and Iran on the Middle East region and the positions and benefits of dialogue for all three states. The article also touches upon the role and place of mediation in China’s overall foreign policy strategy, and the potential for China’s participation in other diplomatic processes, including possible diplomatic settlement of the Russian-Ukrainian war.
