China and Iran are wielding the global economy as a strategic weapon to challenge the dominance of the United States, as detailed in a recent Washington Post report.
The report highlights incidents such as China's restriction of rare earth mineral exports and Iran's closure of the Strait of Hormuz, both of which have strained U.S.-led supply chains and caused significant economic disruptions worldwide.
