China cautions new Iran sanctions may raise tensions
China warned that the new U.S. economic sanctions on Iran will lead to increased tensions. It called on the U.S. not to impede China's cooperation with Iran, noting that the policy of "maximum pressure" will not resolve the issue and will only escalate conflicts. China affirmed that it will take necessary measures to protect its interests. Meanwhile, the U.S. Treasury Secretary announced plans to launch an economic campaign against countries that purchase oil from Iran. Estimates indicate that Iran exported approximately $3.9 to $4.2 billion worth of oil in September 2025. China is the largest consumer of oil and imports a significant portion of it through the Strait of Hormuz, which remains a critical point in the conflict with Iran.
