Trump Warns Xi Against Chinese Support for Iran

At the UN General Assembly in September 2026, U.S. President Donald Trump told Chinese President Xi Jinping that Chinese support for Iran was 'totally unacceptable,' according to the U.S. ambassador to China. The ambassador said Xi assured Trump that China would stop aiding Iran and stated that China is not helping Iran. A top Emirati diplomat, Anwar Gargash, said Iran has dragged the region into this conflict. The talks between Trump and Xi produced no progress on Iran or Taiwan.
