Washington — U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent on May 4 urged China to increase diplomatic pressure on Iran to reopen the Strait of Hormuz to international shipping, saying Beijing’s energy purchases sustain Tehran and that the issue will be discussed when President Trump meets President Xi Jinping on May 14–15 in Beijing. This week Bessent called on China and Russia to stop blocking U.N. measures and asked Beijing to 'join' U.S. efforts to reopen the strait; U.S. officials say operations are under way to restore maritime traffic, oil prices and U.S. gasoline costs rose, and the matter is expected to feature on the May summit agenda.
