On the second episode of “The Other Superpower,” we analyze the complex and evolving relationship between China and the Islamic Republic of Iran. In 2021, China and Iran signed a 25-year strategic accord—perhaps a testament to their shared desire for deeper cooperation and to thwart the American-led system. But is this partnership truly as solid or enduring as we may think it is? Craig Singleton, Vandenberg Advisory Board member and China Program Senior Director and Senior Fellow at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies, and Ray Takeyh, Vandenberg Advisory Board member and Hasib J. Sabbagh Senior Fellow for Middle East Studies at the Council on Foreign Relations, join to explore this partnership.
