White House Official Says Iran Lost 10 to 15 Percent of Oil Supply to China
Ben Shapiro Show
Ep. 2423 - 5 Reasons Why Trump Holds All The Cards On China
What was said
"10 to 15% of Chinese entire oil supply came from Iran. Guess what they are not getting now? Any of that."
Ben Shapiro revealed that before the Trump administration's Iran operations, 10 to 15 percent of China's total oil imports came from Iran, and that supply has now been cut to essentially zero. This represents a major strategic blow to China's energy security and shifts the balance of power in Trump's upcoming Beijing summit, contradicting media narratives that China holds leverage over the U.S.
