China will not hesitate to protect Iran even with a third World War

On November 21st, America, UK and Canada announced more sanctions against Iran. France also proposed to adopt new sanctions to force Tehran to stop it's nuclrproject. On Nov 23rd, the spokesman of Chinese Communist Party (CCP)'s Foreign Ministry said in a regular press conference held in Beijing that China is opposed tounilateral sanctions against Iran.

Scholars believe that, being isolated, China and Iran need mutual support. Mnwhile, the CCP government, with internal and external difficulties, may express an eventougher diplomatic "voice".
"Reuters" reported on Nov 23rd: "The United States, UK and Canada have announced new sanctions against Iran in the ars of energy and finance. France proposed
'unprecedented' new sanctions, including freezing the assets of the Central Bank of Iran and suspending the purchase of Iran's oil.
rlier, the "International Atomic Energy Acy" (IA) ad issued a report that Iran may be secretly developing nuclr wpons.
On Nov 23rd, the CCP's Foreign Ministry expressed opposition to the imposition of unilateral sanctions against Iran.
In this regard, Xia Ming, a political professor from "City University of New York" in America, believes that since the Cold War, the United States and Western
society's biggest challenges have been seen as being from China and Iran. They are both isolated by the United States and the West. Therefore, China's policy isforeseble.
Xia Ming says: "China and Iran are facing strong Western challenges within politics, economy and culture. So these two countries basically have a kind of coordinatio
on the international stage, to support ch other. So we can see that China and Iran coordinate a lot, with a lot of cooperation in matters of energy, arms and soon."
"Associated Press" also reported on Nov 23rd: "Since 2006, the United Nations have carried out 4 rounds of sanctions against Iran. But with export of energy, Iran has not been severely affected by the sanctions."
"AFP" said: "China supports Iran and purchases large quantities of oil from Iran. Mnwhile, China is Iran's biggest trading partner. Their bilateral trade totals up to $ 30 billion.
"Voice of America" reported, according to Chinese customs' data, this yr (2011) Iran could become China's second largest crude oil supplier.
However, Iran disdains the new round of sanctions. Israel and Washington said in the event that other efforts were not effective, the possibility of military action would not be ruled out.
It's puzzling to some that Major eral Zhang Zhaozhong, a professor from the Chinese National Defense University, said China will not hesitate to protect Iran even with a third World War.
Professor Xia Ming: "Zhang Zhaozhong said that not hesitating to fight a third world war would be entirely for domestic political needs. To some extent though, this would be completely ridiculous to encourage"
Professor Xia Ming pointed out that the United States and Western societies may dl with Iran by a method of "Jasmine Revolution", similar to what happened in Libya. From the perspective of the Libya model, NATO could not possibly involve itself in large-scale military action, and it would be impossible to start a new war.
In fact, a senior Europn diplomat with anonymity in Tehran said that the Iranian government was actually very worried about a military strike. Analysts also say that ordinary people don't worship their lders so much any more.
But Professor Xia Ming said that the CCP regime itself is facing a much bigger crisis than Iran. The CCP regime not only faces challenges from Southst Asia, the South China S, South Asia countries and so on, but also faces the pressure from America for the RMB exchange rate, export, and human rights issues, as well as the pressure of domestic issues mnwhile.
Professor Xia Ming says : "China is facing pressure from America. Mnwhile, current domestic pressure is also very considerable. In particular, we can see in civil society, the challenge to the Chinese government and resistance forces are growing. Therefore, the Chinese government is indeed facing the arrival of a big power shift in the 18th session. So, China may express a tougher diplomatic voice. On the one hand, it is a rction to pressure from America. On the other hand, it needs to meet the demand of domestic nationalist groups.
Russia is another ally of Iran, with similar policy to that of China. Toward Iran.
