A widely shared argument holds that US sanctions on Venezuela and Iran have cut off oil supplies to China, whose economy the author says is already weakened by heavy debt and reliance on petroleum imports. The post claims Beijing is therefore in a precarious position and cannot afford to anger Washington, calling it proof of the power of American sanctions.

Why now: Ongoing US sanctions on Venezuelan and Iranian oil exports are seen as directly pressuring China's energy supply.
