Xi also reportedly assured Trump that China will not provide military equipment to Tehran — a major shift as fears grow over possible Chinese support for Iran’s air defence systems. But China will continue buying Iranian oil, preserving Tehran’s economic lifeline despite mounting international pressure.In this episode of Epic Fury, we break down the real outcome of the Beijing summit, the gap between the White House and Chinese readouts, Rubio’s contradiction of Trump on Chinese mediation, and what Xi’s statements mean for the risk of renewed US military action.We also examine:China’s silence on Iran in its official summit recordTrump’s claim that the US needs the Strait of Hormuz less than ChinaWhether Beijing is quietly giving Washington freedom to strike againThe strategic game unfolding between the US, China, and IranWhy the next communication through Pakistan could determine what happens nextThe summit is over. The ceasefire remains fragile. The war is still unresolved.
