This escalation would mean “serious consequences” for China, he warned.

So what, agreed. What is numb nuts going to do, sanction China? Ha Ha. They didn’t work against Russia, they failed miserably sparking off worldwide trade disruptions and shortages.

Fair play I say. The US goes further into bankruptcy with their Ukie arms give away, and China can’t do the same? At least China receives something from Vlad, like all the oil they need ( in progress) and more war materials, metals, commodities than they could ever imagine. Go for it China.

Aint gonna happen.

Red China nearly OWNS this country, lock stock and barrel.

Thanks to stupid retards that think we should be friends with a country that intends on ruling the world.

In the early to mid 90s this country fuc*ed up making friendly relations with Russia. Now, not only are they enemy number one, China is, and Biden is working on making INDIA an enemy also.

Through this worthless pig faced son of a bitch Biden, they have managed to damage ALL relations with nearly the entire mid continent Asian countries.

We can cut off China tomorrow except, by April we will be begging for forgiveness.

Moreover..Taiwan produces a vast portion of the worlds super conductors and chips.

If we do not defend Taiwan, Red China takes it and the USA ceases to exist by April.

They better stall..long enough for that Taiwan corporation to finish and start production of that plant in TX.

Why shouldn’t they give arms to Putin. Biden signed the agreement giving the Russians the pipeline to supply the EU with energy giving the Russians one billion dollars per day to fight their war on Ukraine. What hypocrites the Dems are.

True, we don’t produce anything here anymore. Might hurt the habitat of some fish, toad, bird or ant.

I actually agree with a post upthread who said this was one plane and it landed in Uzbeckistan. Hardly anything to get all excited over.

Our US officials made up that ‘peace proposal’ and have spun it a number of directions. China said it would offer a position piece and the West is afraid it will undermine the West’s ‘narrative’. So Blinkin and others are lying freely, stating as fact that it’s a ‘peace proposal’ and China is delivering weapons to Russia etc.

- As Russia’s special military operation reaches the one year mark, we wonder what is happening now and what will happen next;

- Equally important is what started this conflict;

- NATO has repeatedly attacked and destroyed allies of Russia around the globe throughout the 21st century;

- NATO has also constantly encroached eastward toward Russia’s borders;

- The Western media admits that the US has repeatedly overthrown nations along Russia’s borders and installed client regimes in their place;

- The Western media also admits that these nations pose a threat to Russia including Georgia which in 2008 actually attacked Russian forces;

- Ukraine from 2014 onward was a repeat of US meddling in Georgia that left Russia with only one choice, not if conflict would come but when it would be fought? At a time convenient for NATO or for Russia?

- The US is pursuing a similar campaign of encroachment, encirclement, and proxy war with China giving Beijing every reason to support Russia in its current operations in Ukraine;

U.S. President Joe Biden is in Kiev today to rescue his lunatic project of destroying Russia by proxy war. But there is no good way to do that.

A review of 'western' media shows that the inevitable outcome of the war is now recognized. The only still open alternatives are to risk a large nuclear war or to retreat from 'western' dreams of its permanent hegemony.

Few 'western' officials will admit that the war is lost, that Russia has won in Ukraine. But it has. It had won the war when it successfully trapped the Ukrainian army into a war of attrition.

A the Russian commentator Sacha Rogers writes (in Russian, machine translation):

This war has already been won (moreover, what is most offensive for various "unrecognized geniuses", without their participation and contrary to their foolish ideas of how it should be won). It was won at the moment when, instead of a highly maneuverable war, our General Staff imposed a positional “standing” with an attrition war on the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

Strictly by the textbook: Attrition warfare is a military strategy consisting of belligerent attempts to win a war by wearing down the enemy to the point of collapse through continuous losses in personnel and material.

###

But the Ukrainian army does not have the material and manpower ready to launch some kind of counter offense that would have a chance to be win the war. It doesn't even have enough to regain some significant territory.

The third army it would need would have to be much stronger than the two armies it has already lost. And its not coming.
