US President Donald Trump has claimed that China has agreed not to send weapons to Iran, calling the development a sign of strong cooperation between Washington and Beijing. He also said China is “very happy” with his move to permanently open the Strait of Hormuz, a key global oil route. However, details remain unclear, and China has previously criticised the US blockade as “dangerous,” highlighting ongoing tensions despite Trump’s optimistic tone.
