Xi STUNS Trump At UNGA, China Warns US Over Iran And Cuba | N18G
China has pushed back against the United States at the United Nations General Assembly, with Vice President Han Zheng addressing the Iran and Cuba crises
China has pushed back against the United States at the United Nations General Assembly, with Vice President Han Zheng addressing the Iran and Cuba crises in remarks that came just days after President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping met in Washington. Han called for the sovereignty and security of countries in the Middle East, including the Gulf, to be respected.
On Cuba, he urged the “relevant country” to stop using the threat of force and lift the blockade and sanctions. He did not name the United States directly. The remarks come against the backdrop of the continuing US-Iran conflict and Trump's recent warning to Xi against providing support to Tehran. US Ambassador to China David Perdue said Washington had made clear that direct or indirect Chinese assistance to Iran would be unacceptable; China has denied allegations of military assistance.
The timing is significant: Xi's Washington visit had produced agreements on developing a “constructive relationship of strategic stability” between the US and China, according to China's UN mission.
