China is helping to keep Iran afloat by transferring weapons via their long established supply lines through Pakistan and the Caspian Sea. Xi wants to bog down Trump in the ME to open up the Indo Pacific. Those supply lines must be addressed and so far I have not heard the administration talk about it.
This information started to circulate prior to Trump cancelling his visit to Beijing on March 31. China had some top technical advisors on the ground that were killed in the initial strikes at the end of Feb and beginning of March. They specialized in radar systems, missile technology, and nuclear. Word is that another 7 technicians were also killed. There supposedly was about 300 Chinese technicians trapped in some of the underground bunkers that were hit. The Chinese embassy furiously burned documents when the attacks started.
So I am sure the administration has knowledge of these supply lines. Pakistan is no friend of the US and is tightly attached at the hip to China. I have not heard of much US action being taken in Eastern Iran near the Pakistani border area where those supplies transit.
