China did try to draft a law to compel companies to create this kind of back door for their government.

President Obama told President Xi that China would not be able to do that if they wanted to do business with the US [1]

As far as I know, the iPhone still sells in China, so that law never made it through. If the US allows this to happen, you can bet China will demand the same.
