China did not “backstab” Iran.
Iran was never an ally of China. People forget the Iranian governments “nEither east or west” policy.
Iran even recently rebuffed Russia who wanted closer denfese ties and wnted to export high end air defense equipment.
The Iranian governments bad policies are catching up to them. You become mortal enemies with the most powerful force on earth. And stubbornly refuse to build nukes to protect the country”s sovereignty?
You become so arrogant that you believe you dont need any help or allies?
Even today mohsen rezai is almost screaming the irgc position which was to continue fighting. Rezai also previously said something along the lines of “ we want nukes but there is a fatwa against it”
Low iq mullahs are going to destroy the Iranian nation and people with their stupidity
You are a clear-headed person.
Developing alliances requires the joint efforts of two countries. When a person does not need help, arrogance leads them to stop developing relationships or even destroy them. When they need help, they expect others to provide it selflessly, which is not conducive to establishing friendly and cooperative relationships.
On March 27, 2021, China and Iran signed the "China-Iran Comprehensive Cooperation Plan," which outlined 25 years of cooperation. However, it was not until October 2025 that Vahid Yazdanian, head of Iran's Space Research Center, confirmed at the opening ceremony of "World Space Week" that Iran was formally negotiating with China to fully adopt the Beidou system, with plans to complete key area switching within 1 to 2 years and start developing domestic navigation satellites within 3 to 5 years. Why not abandon the US GPS during these four and a half years?
On March 10, 2023, China, Iran, and Saudi Arabia jointly issued a statement announcing that Saudi Arabia and Iran had restored diplomatic relations, and the three countries expressed their willingness to make every effort to strengthen international and regional peace and security.
The invasion of Iran by the Epstein coalition made Iran's strikes on all US military bases legitimate. However, on April 13, 2026, Iran's permanent representative to the United Nations formally submitted a letter to the UN Secretary-General, explicitly requesting war compensation from five Middle Eastern countries: Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, and Jordan. I have no intention of interfering in Iran's internal affairs, but Iran negotiating outside the China-Saudi-Iran framework and openly demanding compensation at the UN is an act that undermines the joint statement involving China.
We have strict restrictions on the export of offensive weapons. However, air defense weapons, phased-array radar, and anti-drone systems can be procured normally. We support all countries in legally defending their nation. I have not seen Iran equipped with these defensive weapons. I know Iran lacks funds; within the China-Iran cooperation framework, China provides funding and technology, and Iran provides energy. Iran can adopt the same approach to procure weapons. From the signing of the cooperation agreement in 2021 until the invasion of Iran by the Epstein coalition, there were five years, yet I have not seen any actions by Iran to strengthen air defense firepower.
I will end with a sentence from "The Three-Body Problem": Weakness and ignorance are not obstacles to survival; arrogance is.
