“As President Trump tries to sort out his next steps on the Iran war, China is taking its own actions to ensure that it benefits from whatever outcome eventually emerges,” the New York Times reports.
“China is prodding Iranian officials to negotiate with the United States, while also quietly allowing its companies to give Iran commercial support that could help Iran’s military if Mr. Trump dives back into a full-blown war.”
“The Chinese government has not taken a strong position on the war. It has multiple goals and acts with caution, so it is hedging, officials and analysts say.”
