ben, i this sounds like the u. s. tacitly admitting that its efforts to contain her on have failed. does china have any interest in helping the west on the fund? well, china has a geo strategic interest to also keep iraq iran away from a nuclear weapon. so from a chinese national security perspective, and it is important for iraq to also not weaponized that, that has not changed. but when it comes to, um, the united states and beijing, washington relations. obviously, china would like to very much be portrayed as a, as a very important player at the table and to be able to bargain a deal and broker a deal between iran and the united states. and other signatories in a way that those signatories order. i should say the kind of leading diplomats in those groups were not able to do so china would like to kind of re position itself as the kind of savior of the deal in this regard. terence cozying up to beijing and moscow of course as well, has been described as an attempt to offset western sanctions over it's nuclear development. is this essentially here i'm telling the west, you know, w
