The two sides exchanged views on the current situation in Iraq and the conflicts between Israel and Palestine.
Li expressed his concern with the situations in the Middle East and the Gulf region, saying the United Nations should play its role in maintaining the peace and stability in this region.
The political will and choice of the Iraqi people should be respected, said Li.
