## Resource

Iran strengthens Russia-China alliance following US-led conflict. New Strait of Hormuz management requires rial payments, Iranian bank guarantees, reparations from nations involved in hostilities. UAE faces potential repercussions for alleged wartime collaboration. As US-China summit approaches, Beijing labels war 'illegitimate'; revived Russia-Iran-China triangle reshapes Eurasian dynamics. Diplomatic hurdles persist: trust deficits, security guarantees before nuclear talks. Global economic pressures mount as regional powers navigate fragile ceasefire and accelerating multipolar order.
