    Looks like both China and Russia , see fit to reject Iranian national sovereignty over the trio PG islands . Even if these Islands and even Bahrain were part of Iran in documented cases . And even if there are no Arabs residing on these Islands ! Is it all diplomatic lubricant to land a few juicy contracts ? The calculation being that Iran is cornered by them and has no retaliatory options ? And they can carve- up Iran on a plate ? It is obvious that the PGCC statements are getting very serious about their false claims on these Islands ! Do they want to put foreign or American bases on them ? Looks likely .

    Iran should teach these pesky PGCC upstarts a lesson and test China and Russia too , to see if these diplomatic moves are mere economic lubricants or if they have military and expansionist plans ? Iran can do this by launching skirmishes against all these PGCC f**cked up kingdoms , to teach them a lesson and let them find out , who comes to their aid ! Will China stand with them against Iran ? Or Russia ? If so then Iran needs a new path . What you think ?

    Don't see at all why Russia is involving itself in any way in this dispute and at such a time too, when it is important for it to maintain diplomatic support from all the countries of the region.

    Perhaps because the PG littoral states are big potential markets and likely candidates for military bases , and Russia / China think , that Iran under sanctions can be persuaded to part with it's territory . They may then think they can station troops on these Islands , since Iran will not allow stationing of  foreign troops on it's soil . Even America , under the Shah , never made demands against Iranian territorial integrity . I think that these statements are serious enough for Iran to take action against China and Russia . Any state in a strong monopolistic position , has the potential to act in an expansionist way , no exceptions . And for China / Russia to show their hands , so early on , in their relationship with Iran , is very revealing . I think in politics , even if you shake a man's hand , with one hand , you got to have him by the Balls , with the other ! And apply pressure , as and when needed . The retaliation against China and Russia ,should be proportional . Iran should find Islands that belong legally to China and Russia , with Chinese and Russian inhabitants on them , that are claimed unjustly by other states , and give diplomatic support to these states in their unjust claims on these Islands ! If Russia and China take further practical steps , military aid , with the aim of allowing capture of these Islands , then Iran should be in a position to fully  reciprocate . For China then Taiwan comes to mind , for Russia the Islands next to Japan ......
