When Hamas (which Iran funds) attacked Israel on Oct. 7, 2023, it used North Korean grenade launchers. After the attack, Chinese and Russian groups filled social media with antisemitic, pro-Hamas posts.

Instead, the war has caused diplomatic tensions within the U.S.-led alliance. The resulting chaos has become another chance for China and Russia to weaken that alliance.</span></p><h2 style="color:#000;font:700 24px/31px nyt-cheltenham,georgia,serif;margin:0 0 10px"><span>Harris vs. Trump</span></h2><p style="font:normal 17px/25px georgia,serif;color:#333;margin:0 0 15px"><span>Still, there are limits to the autocratic partnership. China is by far its most powerful member and benefits from some kinds of international stability. The Chinese economy relies on an integrated global system. For that reason, the Carnegie Endowment report argued that a crucial way to reduce cooperation among the four autocracies would be for the U.S. and its allies to avoid fully isolating China.</span></p><p style="font:normal 17px/25px georgia,serif;color:#333;margin:0 0 15px"><span>The next big question is what happens in the U.S. presidential election. Iran’s leaders have made clear that they are rooting for Kamala Harris because of Donald Trump’s strong anti-Iran stance. China’s and Russia’s leaders have made it clear that they are rooting for Trump. They see him as an agent of chaos who will help their global ambitions.</span></p><h2 style="color:#000;font:700 24px/31px nyt-cheltenham,georgia,serif;margin:0 0 10px"><span>For more</span></h2><div
