China is not threatened by Russia. No one is threatened by Russia. Russia has 120 million people and an economy the size of Spain’s. They can be disruptive and devious when it suits their purpose but they cannot carry out any grand schemes of conquest and world domination.

China on the other hand has 1.3 billion people and the worlds largest economy.

Yes they are sanctions against N Korea which were proposed by us TO the UN. The UN then drew up a resolution(s) which was then approved by the Security Council and implemented.

How long do you think it will be before China and Russia start pushing for the sanctions to be eased?

Anti-Russia nuts will accuse Russia of having meddled South Korea’s election.

Not to mention that Russia has the second largest nuclear arsenal on the planet and is a major geopolitical player.

WHOLLYKRAB! I just checked a map - Does Russia extend all the way down the coast to N Korea?

You would think China would want some of those ports.

POTUS Trump announced at his Rally yesterday that North Korea is returning the Remains of 200 American Soldiers KIA during the Korean War.

Has anyone seen a Headline about that?

“Didn’t the Soviet Union and North Korea initiate a peace process in the early 1950’s bring together both Koreas in a unified peninsula?”

Mao was a Stalinist for a period of time, as the CCCP needed rice and PRC desired weaponry. Did Mao provide introduction? Perhaps. The PRC enjoined the ground forces as USSR provided air support.

The same South Korean leaders who have poured accolades towards Trump as the reason for the sudden cooperation?

UN sanctions whether put in place or refunded by resolution must have the unanimous vote of the Security Council.

China, Russia, So Korea and whoever else can all call for certain actions all they want but unless we, as members of the SC OK it nothing happens.

Ah, so the LSM sees the whole immigration thing blowing up in their collective leftscum faces, so this is their new tactic: Denigrate President Trump’s success with North Korea.

Wow, that didn’t take as long as I’d thought.

That’s a family squabble. Ukraine had a chance to arm themselves and build a credible deterrent to Russian aggression but they allowed their pols to disarm and loot their country instead. Then they decided the west should spend its blood and treasure rescue them.
