As the Russian onslaught against Ukraine continues, the Chinese state media has become the latest political entity to advocate for U.S. intervention in the conflict, including a push for troops on the ground and the establishment of a no-fly zone over Ukraine.
Following a virtual speech by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to the U.S. Congress on Wednesday, Hu Xijin of the Chinese Communist Party’s Global Times began pushing for direct U.S. involvement in the conflict, saying the U.S. shouldn’t “just incite Ukrainians to die for American interest.”
“Just applause? it’s hypocritical,” said Xijin in a tweet responding to members of Congress giving Zelensky a standing ovation. “If the US really wants to show justice, it should send troops to Ukraine, or at least set up a no-fly zone, and fight Putin’s troops directly, even [if] that means sacrifice of US soldiers.”

Just give Ukrainians more killer drones.
Bkmk
bad idea period, Ukraine could end this easily by ceding the contested area.
no need for us to be there.
hey joe, what about our borders?
Other way to look at it is the Chinese government is getting disenchanted with Putin.
Only if you’re a retard.
If we want tips about genocide and concentration camps, we will ask China.
Otherwise, STFU, China.
Not that ChiComs care, but “hypocritical” is the wrong word here. “Hypocritical” involves having the same vices that you condemn in others. It’d be hypocritical to applaud Zelensky if you actually supported Putin. But applauding Zelensky for his bravery etc while simultaneously opposing the escalation of American involvement isn’t hypocritical.
Other way to look at it is the Chinese government is getting disenchanted with Putin.

Other way to look at is the Chinese government is looking to weaken us further. Russia just signed a deal with China to export their wheat and barley to China, just announced Russia is using their currency as a reserve currency, is shipping oil to China, signed a mutual protection pact, …..your “ theory “ holds no water.
Or that everyone leaping to enter the fray on the side of the Ukrainians should take a good, long, hard look at the list of names who are in favor of doing that.
Will we see you at the Drag Queen Story Hour this Saturday?
Nice one China (socially smart), maybe we just put our troops in Cambodia instead Nepal?
Announcements, announcements. Wheat and petroleum are fungible, and renminbi aren’t really convertible.
Thank you for your high praise sir.
China, of course!
Chain’s probably sitting back and waiting for US and Russia to nuke each other before invading Taiwan.
My hero? Huh? Where did I say that?
renminbi aren’t really convertible.

India just announced they will start using Yuan, the Sauds just announced they will take Yuan for oil, Russia is buying Chinese securities and just announced the People’s Bank will open huge branches in Russia, offering up to 8 percent interest….you are witnessing a huge shift and discarding of the the USD. Stay tuned, the decline of the US dollar is at hand.
The fact that George Soros has been pushing for U.S. involvement in Ukraine should have been the first clue that it's a bad idea.
