I see Trump’s plan to cosy up to the Russians, invest in the country and stop them from siding with China is going well.

More concerned China pretty much will ensure Russia are economically viable prolonging this war even longer.

I'm not sure what the Chinese agenda is.

Alistair Campbell said recently that they always act in their own interests and never take any kind of stance other than that.

But it's becoming clear that Russia/putin are almost totally reliant on Chinese support.

So you have to wonder how much they want to maintain putin, or might something else be better?

We live in hope, unfortunately I feel deflated seeing Putin shaking hands with Xi , feel Russia has the support and backing of China, N.Korea and probably some other nations aswell as half hearted America, they’re in no short supply of troops and military any time soon.

China are well beyond anyone in the world at this point in time when it comes to manufacturing. The dark factories are frightening, the infrastructure feats are off the richter scale now. I think they have swiftly moved to advance in their health and safety issues forcing everybody to become skilled or specialist labour.

To answer your questiion, I think China are sitting on the fence.

Anyone who watches that and cannot appreciate, at its very core, this is ultimately a battle of good against evil, is utterly beyond help.

When Russia went for Kiev, everybody thought he’d run away and Russia would install another puppet dictator.

Zelenskyy stayed, stuck 2 fingers up to Putin and said you’re not big enough, you ****!

Who wouldn’t follow that!
