China to invest $400 billion in Iran, station 5000 troops

[Riz]

Perhaps China will take over Chabahar Port too. It would make the Indians see their reflections:-

its makes our CPEC look like peanuts

but overall im happy for this.

eventually it'll lead towards a less hostile Iran as both Pakistan and Iran will be in good terms with China.

mitigating Indian advances too.

It would lead to IPEC Iran, Pakistan, China economic corridor and from that to TIPEC Turkish, Iran, Pakistan, China economic corridor.

I believe the whole world is sick and tired of US world domination, time for a change and countries aross the world should not be intimidated by world powers in the future, a more balanced world is fast in the making.

No offense. As long as Iran sticks to religious fanaticism and habors anti US sentiment, the country has no future. The only thing it gets is more sufferings. I will see if the chinese will commit economic suicide if investing large forex reserves and increasing tension with America. Instead, Iran should swallow the pride and make a deal with the US, Israel, Saudi Arabia.

Not sarcasm. In real politics, sometimes it’s necessary to swallow the pride. You can’t feed the population by pride. Nor can protect the country. It’s not worth to give the country’s future into the hands of fanatics.

So you're basically wanting to give in to the fanatic US government? That is slave mentality; best suited for conquered nations. Last time I checked Iran doesn't have any food security issues or issues protecting their border.

Iran’s currency lost 60% against the USD in just over a year. That means the economy shrinks by 60% in dollars term in just a short timespan. The inflation is out of control as well. Iran relies much on imports. You can’t close the eyes.

Iran’s chance against a hightech army as US stands 1:100, against Israel 1:10.

In real politics there is a quote if you can’t beat them, join them.

Saying other have slave mentality doesn’t bring more foods to your people.

You don't have any idea about how things work in Iran !

The US does that to bully sovereign nations.
Turkey lost much of the Lira's value too.
How many countries would have to become a slave of the USA to satisfy its ego?

Anyway; leave it to the Iranian's to decide whether servitude to the US is what they want. If they want to stand up to the US; who are we to debate that?

Your real politics don't know facts on the ground.
So slave mentality brings food to the table? That eerily sounds like people willing to whore out their mothers and sisters to put food on the table. Whatever floats your boat mate. People have different standards of self respect.

Talking of slavery. The US is superpower. You can’t that fact. Iran’s economy will shrink by another 15% this year. Certainly nothing won’t stop you to head to the abyss.

I agree with your theory. But Iran has passed that period in 2 aspects. There is no way Israel will allow Iran join US-Israel. Let me explain a little bit.

First Iran is country with huge potential:
1, Very strategic location, connect Turkey, middle east and rest of Asia, hold throat of Strait of Hormuz.
2, 1.6 million square kilometers territory, rich oil resource.
3, Large population. Iran birth rate can be high if government stop controlling.
4, Very deep culture, very old proud history and intelligent people.
5, Leader of Shia Islam, huge ideology potential.

Second, Iran could NOT defend himself after cold war. But Bush has destroyed Iran geopolitical enemies, from east and west side. Now Iran can defend himself:
1, Iran may get Nukes from North Korea already, or may not. Nobody can be sure Iran doesn't have Nukes.
2, Russia is recovering, China is rejuvenating. US could not be dragged into another war with Iran. Can't afford it.
3, Iranians are united, not like Iraq or Egypt. Americans troops will be surrounded by hatred if US try to conquer Iran. Not possible.

If US invade Iran, US will be defeated again. Just like Korean War, Vietnam War, Iraq, Afghanistan War.

US never won a meaningful war after World War 2. Just bully some inferior/divided/small countries.

China will buy Iran‘s assets for cheap. At the end of the day you end up as servant to China. Is that a better choice?
