I dont know the reality but if Saudi is forced to do some thing than the revenge factors comes into play and they are way powerful any body else. what they publish just on this Ukraine war goes way beyond anyone else as if this is a training exercise and now they are directing people to rutube. They only put Europe into economic comma as they had that historic relations but it will not be for others.
Iran will have to demonstrate competence in that North-South corridor. When Russia talks to Iran its basically Sunni talking to Iran.
It's like "I noticed you" but it makes not much difference from not noticing. I don't think China would enter the kind of agreement like between USA and USSR/Russia that oblidge China duty to US since US has never fulfilled and would never fulfill their end of bargain as a fact.
