China slams US military blockade of Strait of Hormuz as a 'dangerous and irresponsible move'

China condemned the U.S. military blockade of the Strait of Hormuz as a 'dangerous and irresponsible move,' criticizing Washington's actions amid ongoing tensions with Iran. The U.S. implemented the blockade under President Trump after failed peace talks, risking escalation of regional conflict and disrupting critical oil and gas traffic through the strategic waterway.
