It’s not that China refuses to cooperate militarily with Iran, but rather that Iran chooses self-reliance.how long will China watch one of its principal sources of cheap oil so crucial for the double digit growth and industrial effort get confiscated for at least a generation by its main competitor, is today's billion-dollar geopolitical question. If there isn't *one* strategic analyst within their *entire* state apparatus able to tell the higher echelons to effing move from their pathetic spectating posture and act like a nation truly contemplating a global superpower role, then they deserve to remain a sub-par regional actor for the remainder of the century. Part of a nation becoming a superpower is to boast a number of true visionary architects of foreign policy.
The US had Brzezinski, Kissinger, the USSR had Gromyko. China, by its current lack of political courage and initiative, and assuming that catastrophe of a non-stance remains their posture for the whole duration of the war and god forbid Iran breaks as a country, shall end up watching the consequences that will reverberate and will be taught as their single biggest strategic blunder of the century in every of their foreign policy papers, academies and circles published for 50 years to come. Akin to the 2003 Invasion of Irak by Bush Jr. I honestly don't feel i'm overstating this.
And "the need to balance cordial relations with the GCC" does not stand the test of the current existential conflict for Iran. Prioritizing them is one thing, dropping Iran so casually as some sort of toxic asset is completely another.
The GCC are and will remain core US satellites at the end of the day, even if the KSA has timidly ventured a bit further away relative to the other micro-states, but will listen to America whenever they throw a tantrum at a given geopolitical juncture. There will always be a hard limit to what they can do with them, same with Turkey on NATO's side. IF they can't see it, they aren't even worthy to be considered serious players at scale, period.
PS : thanks for the warm welcome @Persian Gulf and @shapurzolaktaf , + all others who reacted positively. We're all in this together even from outside. I truly appreciate.
Its Chinese policy to talk money only…It’s not that China refuses to cooperate militarily with Iran, but rather that Iran chooses self-reliance.
As for the ongoing wars, what can China actually do? As long as China holds massive amounts of U.S. debt and dollar reserves, a direct military conflict with the United States remains an impossibility.
But why have his wife, daughter, son in law there as well?Here’s a crazy theory…
Did the Ayatollah know Iran’s senior leadership were either compromised and/or incompetent?
So, he kept them with him overground - so USA/zios could dispose of them.
Leaving his trusted IRGC in charge.
“Mainstream” explanations for the large scale decapitation seems even more wild to me.
His son would know the truth.
But why have his wife, daughter, son in law there as well?
