"China's government can follow Japan's example and provide insurance guarantees for Chinese tankers carrying Iranian oil amid Western sanctions on Iran, top shipping conglomerate COSCO Group said on Tuesday . . . 'We need to wait until the insurance issue is solved. We are pushing for a solution right now. Without insurance cover, we wouldn't dare to ship oil from Iran,' Wei Jiafu, state-owned COSCO Group's chairman, told Reuters on the sidelines of a conference.'Japan has set a precedent, we can just follow their lead.' Wei's comments, the first from a prominent Chinese firm about Iran oil shipments, suggest China's government may be considering state guarantees for its ships to enable the world's second-biggest oil consumer to keep importing Iranian crude." (Reuters, "Govt insurance a way for China to ship Iran oil-COSCO," 7/17/12)
