China and Iran have had trade, military and cultural ties for more than two thousand years. The legendary Silk Road, joint defensive activities, economic cooperation, exchange of goods and services, all this connected China and Iran long before the beginning of the history of many other Asian states. Both countries experienced revolutions, change of ruling regimes and the advent of new power. They maintained friendly relations. At present, when similar events are taking place in the world, when Western countries are pressing, imposing rules and imposing restrictions, one of the best ways out is to unite to support their own interests, defend their own interests and effectively resist hegemony. The global processes of the modern world demonstrate the interconnection and interdependence of all members of the world community. Popular methods of suppression and not always effective methods of influence have an impact and lead to consequences in all countries. When some participants in geopolitical events do not want to exist in peace and mutual understanding, for countries that have found themselves under restrictions, uniting with old friends and partners of interest helps strengthen their own power, increase resources to successfully resist aggressors.
