Trump Warns China and Russia Against Arming Iran
US President Donald Trump says China and Russia have assured him they will not supply weapons to Iran amid heightened tensions involving Tehran. Trump said Chinese President Xi Jinping gave the assurance during their meeting in Beijing, including a commitment that Chinese companies would not sell arms to Iran. He added that Russian President Vladimir Putin had also said Russia would not provide weapons to Tehran. Trump said he believes neither country is currently arming Iran, but warned that doing so would be “very bad” for them. The remarks follow a tougher US warning to Iran, with Secretary of State Marco Rubio saying further aggression would bring severe consequences.
