Iran says it will do nothing to jeopardise Xi Jinping’s White House visit on Sept 24 — and will wait until the UN week ends Sept 28. What happens after that is the question. Defence analyst Pravin Sawhney, just back from a week at China’s PLA-run Beijing Xiangshan Forum, joins Zulfiqar, who has been speaking with people in Tehran and Islamabad. In this episode: what a senior Chinese source says Xi is really bringing to Trump (the Busan trade truce, rare earths, AI) — and the host’s Tehran-sourced claim that China’s backing for Iran is about to go public; Iran’s three conditions and why the analyst says the deal Trump wants isn’t available; the new Iran–Oman arrangement in the Strait of Hormuz; how the Houthis’ capture of Mocha, Perim and the Hanish islands boxed in Saudi Arabia’s oil exports; the Iranian missiles fired at the USS George Washington; Netanyahu as the wild card; record U.S. diesel; and the new Graham sanctions law allowing tariffs of up to 100% on China and India. Sourcing note: claims attributed to unnamed sources are identified as such on screen. Predictions are the speakers’ analysis. Figures from the conversation that could not be independently confirmed are labelled in the video.
