Geely's Volvo plant in Europe shut down due to lack of supplies from China. So much for BRICS camaraderie.

Volvo cars are built with components shipped from China. Ships cannot pass Red Sea due to Houthis threat. Houthis are backed by Iran. So. Iran is costing China big bucks.

Perhaps Wang Yi should take a leaf out of Dr Jaishankar's book and head to Tehran with a bunch of concerns.

The Houthis get their weapons from Iran and if they pressure them, the group will yield.

This was a bad idea by Iran from the beginning. If it does not yield results, our navies will have to bombard Yemen back to the stone age; not that they are very far away from it anyway.

Houthis are Chinese pet. Chinese ships go around Africa.
