China just really out here waiting as the US accidentally demolishes itself, making way for a new hegemony

I think it’s in chinas best interest to align with Iran.

And Europe thinks it’s definitely in their self interest to not piss off China.

China had a good thing going with Iran. They want to keep it. They are typically very good at forming alliances.

No way will China flip on Iran for the U.S with all the tariff b.s and insults.
