Iran means a lot to the CCP because they’re a big supplier of cheap oil. A big chunk of belt and road is getting oil through land routes that won’t be blockaded the same way it can be through sea.
They also mean a lot in the sense that all the trashcanistan countries like Russia, China, Iran, North Korea, etc care about each other. That is to say that they’re all dictatorships that oppose the US, and they don’t want to see any bad precedents being set like forced regime change.
Imagine taking out the Iranian leadership in just a week or two, right before the BRICS meeting in rio. Would completely ruin then
