BEIJING (Reuters) - Iran announced plans on Sunday to build 10 new uranium enrichment plants in a major expansion of its atomic programme, just two days after the U.N. nuclear watchdog rebuked it for carrying out such work in secret.
China and Russia supported the International Atomic Energy Agency’s rebuke of Iran for building a uranium enrichment plant in secret, but both countries have long blocked the imposition of stringent economic sanctions on Iran.
He Yafei, a vice Chinese foreign minister, told Reuters last week that China’s stance on more sanctions remained the same.
Below are some questions and answers about why China is so ambivalent about international pressure on Iran.
China says it sticks to a doctrine of “non-interference” in the affairs of other nations, partly because it does not want the United States or Europe criticising its behaviour or policies.
It is also wary of signing up to multilateral efforts to pressure individual countries for similar reasons, except in cases such as North Korea which presents a pressing security concern close to home.
China is a permanent member of the Security Council, so it has a veto on any potential resolution to censure Iran or ratchet up sanctions. While Beijing often abstains from votes on decisions it disapproves of, it is also willing to use its veto.
If Beijing threatens to block a resolution, Western nations that want to increase pressure on Tehran through sanctions or other methods might be forced to act unsupported by the authority of the United Nations.
Alternatively, they would have to wait for something that Beijing considers a more severe provocation.
Growing energy ties bind China, the world’s No. 2 crude oil consumer, and Iran, which has the world’s second-largest crude oil reserves but desperately needs investment to develop them.
Tehran has turned to Asian firms for energy investment as Western firms succumb to political pressure. Iranian oil made up nearly 12 percent of China’s crude imports last year.
Chinese state companies are also selling gasoline to Iran, which despite its huge crude reserves lacks the refining capacity to meet domestic fuel demand. They stepped into a vacuum left by sellers who halted supplies in anticipation of new sanctions.
Both countries also resent Western criticism of their human rights records, which they condemn as unjustified and politically motivated.
North Korea is on China’s border and has hovered at the brink of economic collapse for over a decade. Any disintegration of the regime could spill instability into China.
By contrast, Iran is an important trade partner several thousand kilometres away, with a damaged but functioning economy.
In addition, Pyongyang has twice tested a nuclear device and may have extracted enough plutonium for six to eight bombs.
Tehran says its nuclear programme is for peaceful power generation only. Even if this is not true, Iran’s scientists are still several steps away from a potential nuclear weapon.
China’s leaders will probably bide their time to see how Iran responds to current pressure, whether any further evidence is laid out that would point to nuclear weapons plans, and whether Russia lines up with Western members of the U.N. Security Council. Beijing might ultimately be willing to intervene to prevent Iran developing a nuclear weapon because of fears about a Middle East arms race or worries about global proliferation.
RPT-UPDATE 1-Myanmar generals had genocidal intent against Rohingya, must face justice - UN | Reuters
GENEVA, Aug 27 (Reuters) - Myanmar’s military carried out mass killings and gang rapes of Muslim Rohingya with “genocidal intent” and the commander-in-chief and five generals should be prosecuted for the gravest crimes under international law, U.N. investigators said.
That massacre was uncovered by two Reuters journalists - Wa Lone, 32, and Kyaw Soe Oo, 28 - who were arrested last December and are being tried on charges of violating Myanmar’s Official Secrets Act. The court had been due to deliver a verdict on Monday, but at a brief hearing postponed the hearings until Sept. 3.
Since late April Reliance is trading in a range which is getting even narrower. Today range became extremely narrow and there is possibility of upside breakout due to following factors:
1. Bullish Marubuzo at impressive volumes. Volumes are already more than 2.5 times of past 10 day average.
One can go long if stock manages to hold above 1355, Stoploss can be put somewhere near 1320, if breakout isn't false we can reasonably expect it to bounce back beyond 1400
Down Trend is confirmed by ABCD, 'C' being the TVP level for the trend. Which gives the bias to the Down side. However there are two Scenarios that could possibly happen as we see candle '1' has broken the TVP. Scenario 1 (Green): If candle '1' is broken and given acceptance then we could expect price to move up and break 'A' . Our entry would come on the ...
AB is a Range confirmed by pivots 'CDEF'. As HTF bias is to the upside the price is likely to break the range resistance and continue to move up. Green line: represents rejection or unacceptance of break of range boundaries Orange line: represents acceptance of break of range boundaries Trades can be taken one the pullbacks.
ABCD is an Up Trend, 'E' being the TVP of the trend. Candle 1 and 2 broke the TVP and gave rejection to go in the downside direction, hence the bias stays inline with existing trend bias (Upside). Entry (Long) comes at TVP level. First target is at level 'F' , Second target is in 1:4 RR. Stop is placed below Swing 'B'. As price moves stop can to dragged to ...
'ABCD' is a Downtrend 'E' being first pullback entry. Level C indicates Trend Violation Point (TVP) breaking this level and getting accepting above it will violate Trend ABCD and gives new bias for the following trade. Unacceptence of TVP break will give the bias in the direction of the Trend ABCD. However we can continue to Short the 'pullbacks', to trade in ...
1. AB is the Range confirmed by pivots CDEF. 2. 'A' the Range resistance is broken and given Unacceptence by candles 1 and 2. 3. Yellow line show's the immediate fall in price and Green lines shows pullback and then fall in price 4. Target 1 will come at 1:2 RR Target 2 can be trailed with respect to priceaction. Once the first target is attained stop loss ...
AB is the Range confirmed by CDEF pivots. E and F are just the push backs as they are not broken yet and hence counts as pivots inside range boundary. However when E or F is broken below are the expected scenarios . Scenario 1 : Acceptance - Orange arrows Break and Acceptance of 'E' will give a Long setup Break and Acceptance of 'F' will give a Short setup ...
