China is strengthening its diplomatic relationship with Iran and plans to integrate the two nations’ economies with a 25-year cooperation program.
Iranian president Ebrahim Raisi landed in Beijing on Tuesday, marking the first state visit by an Iranian president to China in two decades. Raisi met with Chinese president Xi Jinping, who said during public remarks that the Communist regime « will unswervingly maintain its friendship and cooperation with Iran and advance China-Iran comprehensive strategic partnership. »
The two rogue nations are poised to finalize a series of bilateral cooperation agreements during Raisi’s trip that will see Tehran and Beijing integrate their economies to historic levels.
The meetings come amid efforts by both regimes to offset U.S. influence across the globe and interfere in U.S. national security operations. China’s spy apparatus has dominated the headlines after one of its spy balloons traversed the continental United States before being shot down by the Biden administration. Three other unidentified flying objects were shot down across the United States and Canada over the weekend.
