Pay attention. China is losing money. A lot of money. And it has nothing to do with the Houthis not targeting Chinese ships or Egyptian ports. And the longer this drags on, the more ships that avoid Egyptian ports and the Red Sea routes, the more money China loses. = CO

What is to stop China from communicating to the Houthis leadership, exactly which ships have a Chinese interest and the Houthis leave them alone. Everybody wins...

For their cooperation, the Houthis are assured a continues weapons supply from Iran under the cover of fake Chinese pressure on Iran.

Chinese shipping is safe from the Housthis because of the partnership.

Chinese infrastructure is safe from US Houthi-oriented retaliation since the USA is grateful for Chinese help with Iranians.

Iran and China both benefit from the wear and tear on the USA policing the Middle East continuing as long as possible.
