The Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs has responded denying reports that they are looking to supply air defense missiles and systems to Iran. U.S. President Donald J. Trump and U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer threatened tariffs on nations sending weapons to Iran and increased friction with China, following reporting from CNN claiming they were preparing to send Man-Portable Air-Defense Systems (MANPADS) to Iran through a third-party country.


Anyone naive enough to believe anything China says?

I'm not in the habit of using memes, but the one with the guy sweating over two red buttons is apropos here. CNN on one side and China on the other.

Wall St. Journal says the Saudis are trying to pressure us to drop our blockade.


I’ve read the opposite, that Saudi Arabia is helping fund the effort against Iran and has asked Trump not to back off.

Foreign ministers from Saudi Arabia, Egypt, and Pakistan will meet their Turkish counterpart in Turkey this week to discuss proposals presented to Iran aimed at ending its effective closure of the Strait of Hormuz and securing a permanent cease-fire with Washington, The Wall Street Journal reported, citing regional officials familiar with the talks.

The meeting will be held in Antalya and forms part of a regional effort to bridge gaps between the United States and Iran and resume negotiations to end the war in the Persian Gulf, the officials said.

Regional countries are seeking to bring Washington and Tehran back to the negotiating table after peace talks in Islamabad ended without a deal, according to the report.

A second round of talks could be held within days, the report added citing officials.
