China’s direct entry into Iran US tension: Strong warning given to America on Hormuz blockade
Global Economic Conflict Risk: Amidst the ongoing heavy tension between Iran and America, now China has also directly intervened in this matter. For the first time, China has issued a very strict warning to America regarding the blockade of the Strait of Hormuz. The risk of this increasing global economic conflict has greatly increased the concerns of the entire world. China has made it clear that it will not tolerate interference from any third country in its bilateral trade partnership under any circumstances.
China’s strict warning
China’s Defense Minister Dong Jun has clearly told the US that bullying will not be tolerated at all. He said the Strait of Hormuz should remain open for China’s trade and there should be no hindrances. If any obstruction is placed on this waterway, China will take very appropriate and strict measures for its security.
American attitude is dangerous
The Chinese Foreign Ministry has termed the current attitude of the US regarding the blockade of Hormuz as very irresponsible. The ministry has also made it clear that such a blockade can have a very serious impact on the entire global economy. China wants to keep this commercial waterway safe and completely open at all costs.
Trump’s big threat
US President Donald Trump had recently threatened that if China gives arms to Iran, the consequences will be bad. Trump had clearly said that in such a situation, 50 percent tariff will be imposed on all goods coming from China. Despite this huge economic threat, China has completely refused to step back.
China’s strong response
After the American threat, Chinese Prime Minister Li Qiang has issued a new and very strict order. According to this new order, if any country violates international laws, China will also take strict retaliatory steps. President Xi Jinping also said without naming that China is never a country that bows down before anyone.
Message to UAE also
China has given a clear message to America as well as the United Arab Emirates about its foreign policy. During the visit of the Crown Prince of UAE, when he raised objection on relations with Iran, Jinping gave him a befitting reply. Jinping clearly said that UAE is a friend but it cannot decide China’s diplomatic relations with other countries.

trade with arab countries
China’s annual trade with Arab countries is about 400 billion dollars, which is very important for its economy. China receives huge supplies of oil from Saudi Arabia, Iran and UAE to meet its energy needs. Apart from this, LNG and other products are also supplied from Qatar, hence China is strengthening its hold in the Middle East.
