Iran killed any delusions of US military domination over China

[东风夜放花千树]

I saw the Americans promoting the news that the Iranian economy was about to collapse.

Here are two pieces of news.

On May 3, U.S. Treasury Secretary Besant said in an interview with Fox News that the blockade being passed by the United States called "Operation Economic Fury" has suffocated the Iranian regime, claiming that "Iran is currently unable to pay troops." Fox News pointed out that due to the ongoing U.S. blockade, the Iranian regime is currently losing up to $400 million a day in oil sales.
Bescent disclosed that the United States believes that Iran currently collects less than $1.3 million in tolls, which is a drop in the bucket compared to its previous daily oil revenue. He stressed that the United States has traced Iran's offshore funds and will continue to track them, planning to retain these assets for the Iranian people after the conflict subsides. At present, the United States is trying to completely dismantle Iran's fiscal payment capacity by cutting off energy exports, freezing overseas accounts and intercepting cryptocurrencies.

On May 3, U.S. Treasury Secretary Besant said in an interview with Fox News that he had repeatedly raised the issue of China's relations with Iran during his meetings with China. Bescent stressed that China has been providing funds to Iran through energy procurement, and the United States has been dissuading China from stopping such behavior, saying that the issue is currently an ongoing topic of discussion. In response to the question of whether he expects China to buy U.S. oil and gas, Bescent did not answer directly, but instead emphasized the status of the United States as an "energy superpower", saying that U.S. energy exports are setting records. He said that in the context of global energy supply diversification, "the United States is the big winner."

Here's how I understand it.

Bescent said the United States has traced Iran's offshore funds and will continue to track them, planning to retain these assets for the Iranian people after the conflict subsides. I don't think the United States has the ability to track down Chinese banking institutions, let alone freeze Chinese bank assets. That is, the United States cannot control all non-dollar assets. As for the US retaining assets, is it a joke, like freezing or robbing Russian and Venezuelan assets?

The United States dissuading China from buying Iranian oil is even more robbery logic. China will not accept the demands of the United States and give up cheap Iranian oil and buy American oil that is far away and expensive. What's more, this U.S. oil is likely to be Venezuelan oil, which is an illegal asset.

We should clearly see that Iran's economic crisis was deliberately created by the United States. The U.S. has used a large number of unilateral sanctions, pushed the United Nations to impose sanctions on Iran, kicked Iran out of the SWIFT payment system, and controlled all of Iran's dollar assets.

In 2018, Trump announced the withdrawal from the Iran nuclear deal and reinstated sanctions on Iran. U.S. allies, including the United Kingdom, France, Australia, and other EU countries, followed the U.S. in sanctioning Iran.

In 2026, Trump attempted to reach a nuclear deal again by using the conditions of lifting or reducing sanctions.

As long as the U.S. believes other countries should sell their interests to the U.S., it imposes sanctions or increases tariffs on these countries. These sanctions are imposed by the U.S., and it can use this method again at any time. This is the consistent practice of the United States.

US should keep its precious oil and gas for itself and its allies, China is not interested. China just said no to US sanctions on 5 Chinese oil refineries. Xi should cancel Trump's visit.

lol, where did you hear that joke?

LOL, where did you hear the contrary ?

China has proven absolutely nothing with its military except that it can show off its shiny new toys. It didn't even come to Iran's aid, its friend and ally. China needs to do more than build up its muscle.

If China try to hold Taiwan, it is something interesting for the chinese top brass as for USA army leaders.

Your description is not accurate.

For example, this one, it is not shiny, and we are not showing off.

But it is very useful when eliminating certain arrogant aggressors.

American transport planes have already flown to China.

However, China's Ministry of Foreign Affairs has not released any related news.

Only the United States has said that Trump will visit China from May 14 to 15.

After the visit to the United States, it is quite possible that Putin will visit China. Once all this is over, whether the world will go to war or return to peace will be answered.

We have made all preparations.

The mad orange man is a gambler all his life and he is entirely capable of waging a big war with China esp over Taiwan if he is upset with his deal with China, such was the case in his last days of his first term. So, China better be prepared.

This thing cannot happen.

First of all, it can be seen from the war of the Epstein coalition invading Iran that the United States cannot concentrate enough forces in the South China Sea.

Second, U.S. military generals would not agree. They have confronted Chinese troops multiple times in the South China Sea. As people directly involved in war, they know what would happen if a conflict broke out.

We are already prepared; no one can predict what this madman will do. If he really goes mad, it would force China to fully support Russia and Iran.

Without rare earths, how many weapons can the U.S. produce? In 2023, China’s industrial output accounted for about 35% of the global total. We have 34 provincial-level administrative regions, and in 2024, one Chinese provincial-level administrative region produced 6.94 million drones. I am very curious how many weapons China can produce in wartime.

Was it? Who really knows, but it didn't stop China from using it for marketing the aircraft. It couldn't have been too successful, since it's not reflected in AVIC's stock price, which rose after Operation Sindoor.

Agree. The US is going to do "something" over Taiwan and China before Trump leaves office. What that something will be and it's scale I don't know, but China should make some educated guesses and be prepared. With the failure of the Iran war, the Empire is more conscious than ever about it's decline.
