A bargaining chip for China considering that Trump wants to make a deal. It's on brand too because he caused the problem to begin with.

Oh, they knew. They expected it. Now they can use it as a pretext for further escalation.

China is in bed with Iran and Russia with regards to BRICS. I find it very unlikely China is going to do anything to get in between Israel and Iran, and even if they do, its clear to me which side they'll choose.
