The Cradle – May 26, 2025
A new commercial rail route connecting China to Iran has officially launched with the arrival of the first cargo train from the eastern Chinese city of Xian at the Aprin dry port near Tehran.
Aprin’s CEO highlighted the port’s strategic role in lowering transport costs and reducing reliance on coastal freight hubs.
Railway infrastructure connecting Iran and China allows freight trains to travel from Shanghai to Tehran in 15 days, compared to 30 days via the maritime route.
On 12 May, railway officials from Iran, China, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, and Turkiye met in Tehran to advance a transcontinental rail network linking Asia to Europe, Tasnim News Agency reported on 25 May.
The six nations agreed on competitive tariffs and operational standards to streamline regional rail services and boost trade connectivity.
China and Iran have expanded trade and economic relations in recent years, as Tehran seeks to bypass US economic sanctions seeking to strangle its economy and oil exports.
The rail line between the two countries enables Iranian oil exports to China and allows Chinese goods to reach Europe without US naval interference.
This ain’t an ordinary freight train.
It traveled all the way from China, went through 4 other countries, and is finally reaching Iran.
The Ancient Silk Road being reborn!
China and Iran are not afraid of US sanctions.
The focus is trade, connectivity & development.#BRI pic.twitter.com/7SvQDduhsw

In 2018, Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei stated that Iran should look to the east rather than the west. Since that time, China has become Iran’s largest oil purchaser, while Beijing has been able to supply Tehran with virtually all its needed manufactured goods, including electronics such as computers and cell phones.
The following year, Iran joined China’s “One Belt One Road” (BRI) initiative – President Xi Jinping’s hallmark strategic foreign policy initiative, seeking to recreate the economic ties that existed between ancient China and ancient Persia along the “Silk Road” dating back to the third century BCE.
China and Iran signed a historic 25-year economic cooperation agreement in 2021, reportedly worth $400 billion in trade.
In 2023, China’s growing relations with Iran helped it mediate a Saudi–Iranian rapprochement, which led to the resumption of diplomatic relations that had been cut in 2016.
One wonders how close it will be to the original ‘Silk Road’, the lie of the ‘Great Wall of China’. Indeed history repeats exposing the lies we’ve been sold.
If you haven’t figured it out yet, the Israel Overlords are simply phasing out the West/white race now & transitioning the future of their global power/control to China (BRICS) vis a vis their new techno-Communist A.I. wog world they’re forming/implementing–as they intend to extinguish the white race (Germanic/Celtic/Slavic) sometime this century–reducing it to virtual impotence after Waste Whitey III. The fate envisioned for the West by the Overlords is for it to simply decompose & morph into an amorphous mass of billions of negroids-asians-latinos & mongrels. A new vast ‘Brazil’ or ‘Dominican Republic’ of scum if you will. In other words, substitute the whites with robots & wogs. Now you know the plan, thanks to me of course.
Until the US is finally stamped into the ground it can easily create another terrorist body to attack this rail road, because it upsets their new ally the anti-China Mongol Independence Movement, just as if they find oil above the Arctic Circle they’ll create the new Innuit United Front to go in and liberate the oil from them and their suicide Eskimo bombers.
Everything America wants or can’t control can so easily become death.
the west digs his own grave by its haughtiness
+ false egocentric dreams of yesterday .
@Mr. Crowley
I like that some ‘Mr Crowley’ by Ozzy
Seems that over the space of a few short years that the top-down, money-power geopolitics of the ruling elites has morphed from the totalitarian goals of a communist, monoplistic, “unipolar” centrally-controlled New World Order, reverting into the more ancient model of greed-based monopolistic fascist standards of power-block politics called “multipolar” globalism.
Notice that no matter what alternatives they trot out to us, it is always the integrity of the smaller nations and basic rights of the common people left out of the equation. With the Covid crimes against humanity, the global-warming hoax, nullifying borders, deconstructing nation states, and cancelling virtually all personal rights and freedoms of the common people, the people began to see the ruthlessness and methods of the methods of the unipolar crowd with their alleged humanitarian and DEI goals. So, in what direction does the money-power herd the disenchanted people? Right into the arms of the Plan B multipolar superpower block nations, to back the continued process of devouring the people, land and resources of the lesser nations. For the lack of an alternative the pseudo populist leaders such as Le Pen, Farage, and Milei and their nations end up being captured and controlled of the more greed-based multi-polar superpower-block nations ending up endorsing the destruction and carving up of people and independent territories such as in Gaza, Syria and the Ukraine.
Both the methods and ends of either alternative are worthy of capital punishment for those in the highest places. But it will not happen as the ruling families and cabals have been at it for a long time – centuries.
