China's mediation between Iran and Saudi Arabia demonstrates genuine diplomatic progress, with both nations reaffirming their commitment to the 2023 Beijing Agreement and expanding cooperation across political, economic and security fields. The trilateral framework has delivered concrete results, facilitating safe passage for over 295,000 Iranian pilgrims and fostering growing exchanges between research centers and cultural institutions while all three parties united in condemning Israeli aggression.
China's supposed mediation success masks its fundamental inability to influence Middle Eastern conflicts when missiles actually fly, exposing Beijing's risk-averse approach as ineffective during active warfare. The trilateral talks amount to little more than diplomatic theater while Iran rebuilds its decimated ballistic missile production, faces mounting domestic crises and creates a dangerous Hormuz Dilemma that threatens China's own energy security through an unstable partner.
