China is winning all over the world with trade surpluses, and has nothing to gain by getting involved in a war. Putin on the other hand is not going to allow Iran to be lost as an ally with access to the Arabian sea.

China, will give some token aid just to maintain a good relationship. But not much beyond that, plus they don't need to, Russia will be the main benefactor.

I'm afraid I'm going to find out. My bet is .if he sides with Putin even his loyal supporters will turn on him. I sure don't to seeg war with the Iranians, but I'm scared we have no choice now.
