The truce they brokered over Yemen between the Saudis and Iran was surprising, as well as being one of the highest points in China's usually dogshit foreign policy record ever. Given that, my hope that they might achieve anything whatsoever positive is tremendously higher than it might have been otherwise.

The potential is there but we should temper our expectations.
