Why the US-Israel war with Iran has been bad news for China too | The Global Story
As the US-Israel war with Iran reaches a diplomatic stalemate – one idea seems to be taking hold: that China is the real winner.
Some have argued that the US’s biggest rival is quietly boosting its international standing, leverage and reputation as a reliable partner.
Yet beneath the surface the economic situation in China looks far less triumphant.
We speak to the BBC China Correspondent Laura Bicker who has been reporting from inside China’s factories and trading hubs to explore whether the potential political gains China may be accruing from the Iran war are being offset by the acute economic cost – and what this means for China’s long-term geopolitical ambitions.
New episodes of The Global Story are released daily. If you’re in the UK, listen on BBC Sounds. If you live outside the UK, listen on BBC.com or wherever you get your podcasts.

The US and Iran have signed a 14-point Memorandum of Understanding, triggering a 60-day period to reach a final agreement.
It includes the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz and sets out a $300bn plan for Iran’s “reconstruction”.
US President Donald Trump has hit out at critics of his deal, saying those accusing him of being soft on Iran were “fools” who might be jealous.
His Iranian counterpart, Masoud Pezeshkian, said the accord was a sign of his country’s “national resilience”.
