"Xi reiterated China's support for all efforts conducive to restoring peace and stands for resolving disputes through political and diplomatic means. The Strait of Hormuz should maintain normal passage, as this serves the common interests of regional countries and the international community."
"Xi's measured statements stood in sharp contrast to those of US President Donald Trump, who took to social media the same day to declare, 'I'm winning a War, BY A LOT, things are going very well.'"
"China is gaining not by doing any dramatic moves but waiting and seeing and using opportunities as they come to position, and letting the Americans deal with the mess."
China is leveraging its economic relationships with the US, Israel, Iran, and Gulf nations to safeguard its interests while preparing for post-war scenarios. President Xi Jinping emphasized the importance of reopening the Strait of Hormuz, advocating for peace and diplomatic resolutions. His statements contrasted sharply with US President Trump's aggressive rhetoric. Analysts suggest that China is positioning itself as a responsible superpower, opting for a measured approach and allowing the US to manage the conflict, thereby enhancing its own strategic standing.
