WNU Editor: Iranians justifiably want to know what are details of their country's agreement with Iran. But Iran is saying that they cannot disclose the details of their deal with China because China wants to keep a publishing ban. 

My contacts in China are not so reserve, and they are telling me that China got a great deal. In a nutshell. Iran is going to owe China hundreds of billions of dollars to build up its infrastructure and modernize its oil facilities (using Chinese labor), and this debt will be paid with oil but a few points below spot price. 

To put it bluntly. If what my contacts are saying is true, China took advantage of Iran's weak position to take them to the cleaners. 

The only public reaction from Beijing on this deal is that they are taking all the risk .... China warned 25-year deal with Iran ‘is hugely risky’ (SCMP).
