The Western-imposed sanctions on Iran undermine the U.S.’s diplomatic influence more than Tehran’s nuclear ambitions.

As Iran comes under increasing pressure from the international community to end its nuclear program, the possibility that the government of Iran will agree to a compromise has grown considerably, as the regime prioritizes survival above all else.

As time goes by and pressure placed on Iran by the international community grows, China has grown increasingly critical of Tehran.
