China to Sell Weapons to Iran?

According to a recent interview on CCTV, both commentators thought it 'just' to punish the United State's sale of arms to enemy Taiwan by selling weapons and other goods to Iran.

This comes after a row of unfriendly confrontations with the Obama administration- starting with his belittled visit to China where he wasn't even broadcast outside of where he spoke, to the Copenhagen conference in which China singlehandedly shot down measures to fight global pollution, to the Chinese hacking barrage on US and European companies resulting in Google giving up on China.

China, who has risen to power and prosperity through peaceful means, is now starting to defend its actions and taking a larger seat in global affairs. Its GDP will this year surpass Japan's, and the China market (those who have money to buy things) has already surpassed the US in terms of car sales and an online population.
