China’s role in the rising tensions between the United States and Iran is becoming harder to ignore. Is Beijing quietly backing Iran, or playing a much deeper strategic game behind the scenes?
In this livestream, we’re joined by Carl Zha to break down China’s true interests in the conflict, how it impacts global power dynamics, and what it could mean for the future of U.S.–China relations. Is this about oil, influence, or something far bigger?

| 0:00.0 | four, three, two, one. And we are live with Carl Jha, political commentator and podcaster. |
| 0:09.8 | I've been watching his excellent work. He's got his own channel, all of his links are in the description box, so please support his work. |
| 0:15.8 | Really pertinent conversation with Trump visiting China with the backdrop of the Iran War. And I saw Carl on a |
| 0:24.5 | recent podcast. I'm going to paraphrase, so you can correct me if I'm wrong, but he described |
| 0:30.2 | the US administrators, you know, these wannabe jock characters, he actually described them as |
| 0:38.5 | petulant toddlers in need of a proverbial spanking. |
| 0:46.6 | Well, their toddlers |
| 0:49.5 | with very dangerous weapons, though. |

| 1:27.1 | Because it doesn't seem to be coming |
| 1:29.2 | from a really strong position. That's correct. I think the original aim for the Trump |
| 1:35.7 | administration was that they're going to do the Venezuelan operation and then they're going to |
| 1:40.7 | kneecap Iran. Then Trump can go to Beijing and tell Xi Jinping, hey, we got your |
| 1:46.5 | energy partners by the balls, and you now have to give us real earth that we want it. But now |
| 1:54.3 | the Iran war is still dragging on. We're like, what, this is a second, third month, and there's |
