Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz astoundingly claimed Friday that one nation may have the “moral authority” to de-escalate the conflict between Iran and Israel after the Jewish state carried out airstrikes on Tehran’s nuclear facilities and eliminated key military leaders.

“It might be the Chinese,” Walz suggested to ex-Biden White House official Neera Tanden during an event at the Center for American Progress (CAP). “And that goes against everything they say they’re trying to do in terms of the balance of power.”

Earlier, Walz had asked: “Who is the voice in the world that can negotiate some type of agreement in this? Who holds the moral authority, who holds the ability to do that? Because we are not seen as a neutral actor and we maybe never were.”

China’s record of human rights abuses against its Uyghur Muslim population has been well-documented by government watchdogs, in congressional inquiries and through the work of other international aid and advocacy organizations.
