You talk as though Iran has only been under sanctions for a few years or that they're giving China oil for nothing.

Imagine how much good will and soft power could be gained if individual victims of these scams received their money back with a note that it was courtesy of CPC.

And what is China supposed to do with this imaginary soft power? Can’t even wipe your arse with it.
I mentioned this in another thread. Iran's economy has been struggling for a few years and was still somewhat stable, but after the 12 days war with Israel inflation worsened rapidly. Combined with the water crisis, it is finally at tipping point.
My conspiracy theory is that Israel was waging currency warfare with Iran. Iran cannot police the flow of currency in their country, due to low trust of the rial Iranians have been saving and trading with USD and have black market currency exchange. This creates major vulnerability that Israel may exploit. Iranian government's own fiscal policy is also not helping.
Iran's economy has been struggling for as long as China has been collapsing bro.
They do have their problems but things like the "water crisis" just need some common sense
this even need analysis. with decline of Europe. these countries will have accept this leadership. These are not Saudi of 100 years ago that essentially created and sustain this Islamic world. Standards are too high.
Oil/ Gas is past tense in terms of Arctic cost structure. They were cheap when Russia was investing in it and even at time shale not make sense for them. but now priority is to use infrastructure development that was initially created for reaching Oil/Gas for rare earth and add the Soft power to it.
I seriously wonder how much of the Canadian Intelligence services have been subverted and turned against Canada by the US. It seems like these guys are itching to kidnap the entire Canadian parliament and deliver them to the US upon first declaration of annexation by Trump.
Are you talking about Katy Perry? It’ll be quite an accomplishment delivering Castro’s son to ICE.
I think it depends on if the CIA/Mossad manage to install some sort of pro-western grunt government. Then Iran might become super anti-China even if it's a their own detriment. If its a government of their people's choosing, I wouldn't be surprised if they're pro-western but I'm not sure if it would be to the extent that refuse infrastructure investments from China. What (somewhat reasonable) developing country would refuse foreign investment/infrastructure? A more stable Iran would also make it more investible than it is today. I'm not sure what losing Iran today would impact future Chinese conflicts though, if someone has any ideas, I'd like to know too.
