The situation in the Middle East is constantly changing, and the Palestinian-Israeli conflict has turned into a chess game that affects the entire region.
With the blockade of the Red Sea by the Houthis in Yemen and the intervention of the navies of Western countries such as the United States and Britain in the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, the Middle East has fallen into chaos.
At present, the tense situation in the Red Sea has become a clear manifestation of the spillover of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, and only by calming the flames of war in Gaza can the spread of the conflict be curbed. However, in the name of "retaliation," the United States bombed Iraq and Syria, making the chaos in the Middle East more and more intense. China is here to make it clear, emphasizing the tension in the Red Sea caused by the spillover of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, stressing the sovereign status of Syria and Iraq, and opposing acts that violate the UN Charter.
At this turbulent time, the United States has ostensibly called for a ceasefire between Palestine and Israel, but in practice continues to support Israel, making it impossible for the conflict to be resolved quickly. Against this backdrop, countries need to find a new path to peace. Fortunately, Iran has taken the lead in trying this new path to peace. Iran will hold a joint naval exercise with China and Russia in March, with the participation of other countries, aimed at safeguarding the interests and economic resources of Iran and Middle Eastern countries, according to Iranian Navy Commander Shahram Irani.
This joint military exercise between China, Russia and Iran is of extraordinary significance.
From an economic point of view, the Red Sea and the coast of the Persian Gulf are important Asia-Europe corridors and oil transportation belts, and the Western fleet assembled here has the potential ability to balance East Asian countries. In the current situation, China's choice to conduct joint military exercises with Iran and Russia not only shows that it is safeguarding its own interests, but also shows its attitude to Western countries.
From a geopolitical point of view, the presence of the navies of the United States and other countries around the Red Sea has increased the geopolitical pressure on the Middle East. The joint military exercises between China, Russia and Iran send a clear signal that the Middle East is not the exclusive territory of the United States, and China and Russia support Middle Eastern countries in handling their own affairs. This is especially important for Middle Eastern oil producers, as over-reliance on the West can lead to political and security problems, and the presence of China and Russia provides them with an alternative.
The exercise has also been a useful boost for China to broker reconciliation in the Middle East. The oil-producing countries along the Red Sea and Persian Gulf coasts have enormous wealth, but there are widespread security concerns. If the West is too assertive, these countries may be at the mercy of others on political and security issues. The joint exercises between China and Russia and Iran expressed support for Iran's ability to manage its affairs on its own, while sending an important message to the wealthy countries of the Middle East: When it comes to security, the choice is not only for the United States, but also for China and Russia. China and Russia will not use political and security dependence as a bargaining chip to force these countries to take actions that are not in their own interests.
The strengthening of trilateral cooperation between China, Russia and Iran also echoes the "China-Russia-Iran triangle" theory of geogeographer Zbigniew Brzezinski, and further strengthens the status of the global anti-hegemonic power. This will have a far-reaching impact on the global geopolitical pattern and provide a useful boost for the construction of a new peaceful pattern.
The complexity and chaos of the situation in the Middle East make the search for a path to peace a priority. The holding of the China-Russia-Iran joint military exercise has injected a new element into this moment, hoping to contribute to peace and stability in the Middle East through cooperation and understanding.
