It depends if the conflict escalate and Iran collapse. If regime survives and even loses it nukes. China can support it afterwards.
2025 Israel - Iranian conflict
- Thread starter Maikeru
- Start date
Thats what I mean by the time is too late. These are long term deep structural issues that had years to be fixed and cannot be fixed in a short period. If they are still not fixed by now when things have heaten up too much, there's not much China can do. Its basically trying to treat terminal cancer at this point. I really don't want to be a doomer since things are only starting but we have seen the main problems are still there after all this time. Qasem Soleimani was assassinated in Jan 2020 ffs!
I really do hope Iran has something up its sleeve but im losing confidnce.
Didn't that nuclear facility got completely destroyed? How are they going to build nuke if it is destroyed? Or am I wrong about this.
Sunni arab countries won't do anything, either. They are cucks and beholden to israeli interests, not to to mention they manage to be even dumber than the rest.
A few days ago there was a Qatari prince or whathaveyou braging on TV how they helped finance the 2003 invasion of Iraq. On the other hand, Qatar and UAE often go against Chinese interests in Africa and financing and boosting Uyghur extremists in the Middle East but China still keeps selling weapons to them, so everybody seems to be playing really dumb games.
Israel seems to have destroyed the power connection at Natanz. But so far the centrifuges underground seem to have escaped. Iran also has another site at Fordow and that seems fine for now.
Qatar literally hosts a 11,000 troop US airbase on it and is largest in all of middle east. Good thing they have money or China should just give them the finger.
People said that North Korea was crazy. But I think they're the actual sane ones. It is insanity to not recognize reality despite being hit over and over again.
Really? China can just sell it's weapons to Iran like it did to Pakistan. If Iran has J-10Cs and HQ-9s the balance of power would shift significantly towards Iran.
Kim Jong Un was educated in Switzerland. He knows how the west thinks.
They were hoping that he would be some stupid rich spoiled kid but it turns out he is far more cunning and ruthless than I imagined. If they continued having some local guy with no outside exposure, NK might have been already compromised by now.
Their performance in defending Russia shows a huge willingness to learn despite language barriers. I recall thats what some instructor said about them.
So I guess willingness to learn is a key factor.
