Periskopi(2 months ago)
(2 months ago)US President Donald Trump has declared that the President of China has agreed not to offer Iran any military equipment.
In an interview for Fox News, the American president also said Beijing has agreed to order 200 Boeing aircraft.
Trump, who is in China for a state visit, said he and Chinese President Xi Jinping had agreed that Hormuz Strait “should remain open to support the free flow of energy”.
China is a key ally of Iran and its biggest oil buyer. Trump has made unsuccessful efforts to convince Xi to use Beijing's influence on Tehran, to accept US conditions to end the war, or at least to reopen the Strait of Hormuz.
There have also been many speculation that Beijing has sent weapons to Tehran.
