Who Was the Silent Winner of the Iran-US War? / Behind the Scenes of a Calculated Game

Cheap oil purchases, monitoring US military capabilities, and expanding trade in national currency are among the opportunities the Iran-US war provided to a global power.

Ambassador Arjan: Buying cheap oil, monitoring US military power and expanding exchanges with the national currency are among the opportunities that the Iran-US war provided for a world power.

Despite not directly intervening in the US-Israeli war against Iran, China has benefited from its consequences in three areas: monitoring US military power through satellite images, buying cheap Iranian oil, and using strategic reserves to deal with the energy crisis. Also, the expansion of the use of the yuan in oil transactions with Iran has helped Beijing's efforts to reduce its dependence on the dollar.

However, the US naval blockade and the reduction of Iranian oil exports have pushed Chinese refineries to alternative sources and increased the cost of energy supply. According to Al Jazeera, China has been able to control some of the consequences of the war and take advantage of its opportunities, but the transformation of these temporary gains into long-term strategic influence depends on the cost of the war and the continuation of disruption in world trade.
