Iran China Relations

China–Iran relations refers to the economic, political, and social relations between the modern nations of China and Iran, from the 1950s to the present day. Both the pre-1979 revolution Pahlavi dynasty of Iran and the post-revolutionary Islamic Republic of Iran have had diplomatic ties with China.


Although the relations between these two governments are relatively new, trade and diplomatic relations between the peoples and cultures within these two countries have existed since 200 BC (see Sino-Persian relations).


Trade

There existed unofficial trade relations between Iran and China during the cold war and steadily increased. Trade reached 1.627 billion in the 1980s and 15 billion in 2007. In 2001, the volume of trade between Iran and China stood at roughly $3.3 billion, and in 2005, the volume of Sino-Iranian trade hit US$ 9.2 billion. Iran's Deputy Minister of Commerce Mehdi Ghazanfari speculated that trade exchanges between Iran and China will exceed $25 billion in 2008. In 2005, exports from China represented 8.3% of the total import market in Iran, giving China the second largest share of the market after Germany. China's exports to Iran have experienced particularly rapid growth in the past five years, with China replacing Japan as the world's second largest exporter to Iran.


Iran's imports from China rose by 360% between 2000 and 2005. China is now responsible for about 9.5% of all Iranian imports. In 1988, the Iranian market opened up to Chinese industry when the PRC began economic restructuring. Once profitable trade relations were established, the PRC invested in Tehran's subway systems, dams, fishery, and cement factories while Iran helped supply China with the highly desired minerals coal, zinc, lead, and copper. Trade between the two states also included power generation, mining, and transportation equipment along with arms and consumer goods such as electronics, auto parts, and toys. Iran–China trade value reached $45 billion in 2011 and is expected to increase to $50 billion by 2012.


Ali Akbar Salehi, Iran's former representative to the International Atomic Energy Agency, said that the two countries "mutually complement each other. They have industry and we have energy resources".


Social

There are several social connections between the two states. The two societies psychologically identify with one another because they both share the national pride and historical identity that comes along with being descendant of two great empires. Despite the psychological difference, there existed limited interactions after the Chinese Revolution in 1949 but social interactions improved after the 1960s. Now there exists open support for the other regime as seen in Iran's support of the action at Tienanmen Square and Chinese condemnation of the United States' attack on an Iranian passenger plane. Even Chinese state-ran news agencies upheld the validity of the internationally controversial election and ultimately attributed any problems that day to terrorists and vandals. They purposefully left out images of Iranian security forces brutalizing the protesters.


The Iranian media does not always adhere to a favorable view of China. Iranian media constantly complains about Chinese price gouging, material inferiority, and that the cheap Chinese imports are driving small Iranian businesses out of business. Despite some of the bad press China has attracted in Iran, about 2,000 Chinese now live in Tehran and 40 Chinese companies relocated to Iran. Recently, Tehran has experienced the introduction of Chinese restaurants into cultural lifeThe Iranian media does not always adhere to a favorable view of China.
