President Donald Trump said Wednesday that China has agreed not to supply weapons to Iran, describing the development as part of broader cooperation between the two countries during a period of heightened tensions in the Middle East.
In a statement posted on Truth Social, Trump said the agreement would coincide with efforts to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, a key global shipping route that has faced disruption amid the ongoing conflict.
Trump indicated that engagement between the United States and China is ongoing, stating the two countries are “working together smartly” and emphasizing cooperation over confrontation.
“President Xi will give me a big, fat, hug when I get there in a few weeks. We are working together smartly, and very well! Doesn’t that beat fighting???” Trump wrote.
The president also said the United States maintains significant military capability, adding that the country is “far better than anyone else” at fighting.
The Strait of Hormuz, a critical passage for global oil shipments, has been a focal point of recent geopolitical developments, with disruptions to maritime traffic affecting international energy markets.
Trump’s comments signal a potential shift toward coordination with China as part of broader efforts to stabilize the region and maintain access to key shipping lanes.
