US intelligence indicates that China is preparing to deliver new air defense systems to Iran within the next few weeks, according to three people familiar with recent intelligence assessments.
It would be a provocative move considering Beijing said it helped broker the fragile ceasefire agreement that paused the war between Iran and the US earlier this week. President Donald Trump is also set to visit China early next month for talks with Chinese President Xi Jinping.
The intelligence also underscores how Iran may be using the ceasefire as an opportunity to replenish certain weapons systems with the help of key foreign partners.
The CCP, being a political party, does not in fact have anti-air capabilities. The country they run, China, has anti-air capabilities.
“Akshually”
The Republican Party has been blasting the shit out of Iran for the last month, unfortunately.
Isn’t the Chinese army in fact subordinate to (or a branch of) the CCP though? I mean, it’s a one-part system, so it doesn’t make much of a difference, but I seem to remember that the army is in fact formally controlled by the party, not the government.
PS. Note: I’m not at all sure, just drawing off an old, possibly incorrect, memory.
Oh shit you’re right. I guess technically the CCP does have anti-air capabilities while China the country does not. This also means the PLA is the world’s largest leftwing militia.
Hope either within or outside power will topple them
It’s also the cpc, communist party of China
The CCP is the group running the show over there, their military and its assets belong to them.
