Careful there or you might end up like Whoopi Goldberg with a two week ban etc
Then, I guess I shouldn’t mention the attack on USS Liberty and the “dancing Israelis” on 9-11-01?
You haven't studied the matter. There are secondary sanctions in place. Unless there is something really important (like oil), China isn't willing to breach these sanctions
No.
A deal need to made for serious Chinese investment to happen in Iran
I agree, but in geopolitics there is no fair or unfair. It all depends on who is more powerful and who has more interests in a deal happening. Complex matters
Just to make it clear, China even followed a lot of the 2014 sanctions imposed on Russia. Does anyone here really thinks that current Iran is more important to China than Russia?
IMO the only way I see China breaching such sanctions is if they to fully sanction Russia in a potential Ukraine invasion scenario. And even there, I think that China would only selectively break the sanctions
Okay then educate me. What are these secondary sanctions China isn't willing to breach?
Just curious, are you Israeli or Jewish?
Whoa??? Fist off, that’s unnecessary!
Secondly, if a commentator were a Zionist sympathizer, they would deny it!
I believe that this commentator’s is simply informed by a different, and not necessarily incorrect, strategic perspective.

There is some material (go to the Iran section) here if you are interested.
You can also search for "US secondary sanctions to Iran" if you want more info
No. Btw you shouldn't ask such questions here as the mods are against that
Calm down folks

Nothing like reading bad news about the EU together with a mug of hot chocolate.
And I bought all three volumes of History of the Decline and Fall of Roman Empire today (Penguin Classics version). How nice.
