  "summary": "US Senator Thom Tillis, a Republican from North Carolina, has expressed a desire for President Trump to press Chinese President Xi Jinping on China's support for Iran. According to CBS News, Tillis wants Trump to address China's oil purchases from and provision of satellite targeting data to Iran.\n\nThe US Senate recently voted on a resolution related to the conflict with Iran. Al-Monitor reports that the Senate voted 50 to 49 to reject a Democratic-led resolution that aimed to prevent a war with Iran without Congressional authorization. The Hill adds that the resolution, which had passed the House of Representatives in July, would have directed President Trump to withdraw US troops from the conflict.\n\nThe vote on the resolution was largely along party lines, with some Republican senators opposing their party's stance. The Hill reports that four Republicans joined nearly all Senate Democrats in voting for the resolution.",
