After the attack on the Iranian embassy, Tehran retaliated militarily against Israel. With the help of the United States and the West, this round of military action did not cause much damage to Israel.
The situation in the Middle East is on the verge of eruption, and Iran and Saudi Arabia have called China. On July 15, Foreign Minister Wang Yi had a telephone conversation with the Iranian Foreign Minister and the Saudi Foreign Minister at the request.
The Iranian side has pledged to China that it is willing to exercise restraint and has no intention of further escalating the situation. The Chinese side pointed out that it is confident that Iran will be able to grasp the situation well and avoid further instability while safeguarding Iran's sovereignty and dignity. China and Iran are comprehensive strategic partners, and China is ready to steadily advance practical cooperation in various fields with Iran. Saudi Arabia's attitude is very direct, that is, Saudi Arabia fully trusts China.
Netanyahu
Originally, under China's persuasion and promotion of peace talks, Iran had no intention of further expanding the situation. However, variables still happen. Although the G7 collectively pressured Netanyahu not to retaliate, Israel has always been hegemonic in the Middle East, clamoring for a "tooth for tat" against Iran.
According to the latest news from the US media, Israel made a final decision after holding two wartime cabinet meetings to use F-35 and other fighters to carry out a "clear and powerful" retaliatory counterattack against Iran, but did not specify the specific time.
The Israeli defense minister informed the United States that there was no choice but to respond to Iran's actions. The IDF Chief of Staff said Iran would bear the consequences for its actions and that the Israeli army was ready for Operation Iron Shield. IAEA President Grossi expressed concern about a possible Israeli attack on Iran's nuclear facilities.
Grossi
It is clear that the situation in the Middle East is spiraling out of control, and this time Israel is so determined to retaliate that it will not even listen to the United States. Iran's foreign minister has warned that if Israel escalates the situation, it will launch an operation with weapons that have never been used so far, and Tehran has developed a comprehensive strategy for all possible scenarios.
Iran's deputy foreign minister said that if Israel takes any action, Tehran's counteroffensive will be completed in seconds and will not wait another 12 days. Iranian President Raisi warned that Iran will respond to any actions that harm national interests.
At this time, the Biden administration should have cooled down the situation in the Middle East and exerted special influence on Israel, but the United States was not afraid of making a big deal and adding fuel to the fire. A few days ago, the U.S. House of Representatives voted 383 to 11 to pass a bill aimed at "sanctioning China's purchase of Iranian oil." The bill stipulates that any transaction by a Chinese financial institution to buy oil from Iran is subject to sanctions.
Iranian oil
First, the United States is nakedly "touching" China. China's position is clear: China strongly condemns and resolutely opposes the attack on the Iranian embassy in Syria, and notes that Iran has stated that its actions are limited and that it is exercising its right of self-defense against the attack on the embassy.
The United States is nothing more than trying to transfer the contradictions, hype up Sino-Iranian cooperation, and let China attract Israel's "firepower" so that it can sit firmly in the Diaoyutai itself. However, this round of escalation of the situation is essentially a spillover of the war in Gaza, and the United States cannot be left alone if it does not want to solve the problem, and it is doomed to be stuck in the quagmire of the Middle East, and China cannot solve the problem.
Secondly, this is an attempt by the United States to strike at China and Iran, with the aim of breaking up the "iron triangle" between China, Russia and Iran. The JCPOA itself was sabotaged and withdrawn by the United States, and the reinstatement of sanctions against Iran is inherently untenable. Not to mention the fact that China and Iran carry out normal oil trade cooperation, and third parties have no right to make irresponsible comments.
China, Iran
It would be naïve for the United States to think that with this paper bill, it will be able to deter China from cooperating with Iran. As for the dismantling of China-Russia-Iran cooperation, it is even more of a castle in the air and not reliable at all. In the future, under the pressure of the United States and the West, China-Russia-Iran relations will only become more and more iron, and they will jointly fight back against the so-called "long-arm jurisdiction".
In the end, this can be regarded as Biden's disguised explanation to Israel. In the final analysis, if Israel and Iran go head-to-head, the interests of the United States will suffer the most, which is why Biden stopped Netanyahu from counterattacking Iran in the first place.
But, correspondingly, the United States, as an ally of Israel, also needs to make an example to appease the Zionist forces. At present, the Biden administration is considering escalating sanctions against Iran.
