Tehran reportedly described the move as a "strategic gesture of gratitude" for Beijing and Moscow’s continued diplomatic and economic support throughout the current war with Israel and the United States.

    I saw Russia and China being criticized for their lack of support for Iran. I’m curious what that support consist of, because afaik they haven’t done much so far.

      China should threaten the West with its rare earth elements. Taking out economic allies should be considered a security concern.

      They provide weapons, intelligence, and economic support to Iran. I’m frankly not sure where the whole narrative that they’re not doing much is coming from. Iran certainly seems to think they’re doing enough.

      You can be criticized for “lack” of support on the absolute scale but still be the ones providing the most support because every other country is doing fuckall.
