Moscow isolated at United Nations assembly, with no major country siding with it
China and India have called for a negotiated end to the Ukraine war, stopping short of robust support for traditional ally Russia.
After a week of pressure at the United Nations general assembly, Russia’s foreign minister took the general assembly rostrum to deliver a fiery rebuke to western nations for what he termed a “grotesque” campaign against Russians.
But no major nation has rallied behind Russia, including China, which just days before the February invasion of Ukraine had vowed an “unbreakable” bond with President Vladimir Putin.
China’s foreign minister, Wang Yi, called on Russia and Ukraine to “keep the crisis from spilling over” and from affecting developing countries.
...During his visit to the United Nations, Wang met Ukraine’s foreign minister, Dmytro Kuleba, in their first talks since the war began.
Earlier this month Putin acknowledged Chinese “concerns” about Ukraine during a meeting with his counterpart, Xi Jinping.
... China’s lack of concrete backing for the war and said that Beijing has declined requests to send military equipment, forcing Russia to rely on North Korea and Iran as its own supplies dwindle.
..Russia enjoyed one rare voice of support on Saturday at the general assembly. Mali’s interim prime minister, Col Abdoulaye Maïga, appointed by coup leaders, hailed the “exemplary and fruitful cooperation” with Moscow.
The junta has welcomed Russia’s Wagner Group security firm, despite western allegations of rights abuses, as France pulled out troops who had been struggling to contain a jihadist insurgency.

FYI, Bakhmut is the lynchpin of the Ukrainian defensive lines......
Will India later stand by its decision to support conquering nations that commit all kinds of terrorist atrocities and to keep what they take? Will that be okay, if China conquers part of India and takes control of ocean routes around it?
The walls are closing in on the Monster of Moscow.
“Ukraine to “keep the crisis from spilling over” and from affecting developing countries.”
That’s hardly calling for an end to the war as the headline claims.
.
“. China’s lack of concrete backing for the war and said that Beijing has declined requests to send military equipment, forcing Russia to rely on North Korea and Iran as its own supplies dwindle.”
ChiComs funnel supplies through N. Korea.
Everyone can see what is coming.
When the referenda are complete in the four regions of Ukraine, and Russia declares those regions officially recognized to be INSIDE the Russian federation, the Russian Army will take off the gloves.
There is no chance of any negotiation now. That ship has sailed a long time ago.
Russia is at war with the United States and the Russian people know it. United States weapons are being used against Russians. U.S. personnel are training and directing Ukraine’s fighting and providing ongoing intelligence support.
The EU is committing economic suicide to support this madness and the Western European people are rising up against their leaders and will ultimately replace ALL of them. The people of Western Europe won’t quietly freeze to death or starve from the lunacy of globalists and climate alarmists.
Ukraine is nothing but a proxy tool of the Leftists/Globalists currently in power in the USA.
Those lunatics want to literally destroy Russia. Why would Russia negotiate with such warmongering bullies?
Guardian conveniently misrepresents the Chinese position exactly as did BBC, ABC Australia and, no doubt, the rest of the FakeNewsMSM.
BBC accidentally let the mention below re “proxy war” & “burned” be heard faintly at the end of their news report, so I simply went to the original source:
25 Sept: South China Morning Post: China tells UN it seeks end to Russia’s war in Ukraine as it warns on Taiwan
‘No country should abuse its power to bully other sovereign countries’, says Foreign Minister Wang Yi in speech laced with barbs aimed at US
On Taiwan, ‘any move to obstruct China’s reunification is bound to be crushed by the wheels of history’, Beijing’s top envoy declares
by Mark Magnier in New York and Jack Lau
China seeks an end to Russia’s war in Ukraine and will hold firm in its Taiwan policy, Foreign Minister Wang Yi told the United Nations in a speech laced with barbs aimed at the United States.
“Turbulence and war can only open Pandora’s box, and he who instigates a ***proxy war can easily get himself burned,” said Wang during a 21-minute address in New York on Saturday...

hmmm. quite a different story now, isn’t it?
The new axis of evil: Russia, China, and India.
Not really. I don’t equate Putin’s regime with Russia.
I have no dislike for ordinary Russians. Or Chinese or Indians.
The axis of evil is Saudi Arabia to Pakistan
And Putin’s army will soon lose Bakhmut.
Russia doesn’t have any visible supplies even from the Norks,
Putin wants to destroy Russia.
Perhaps you forget that Putin invaded Ukraine first in 2014 and then 2022. And Putin invaded Georgia in 2008.

Rossiya weak
another thing I hear on FakeNewsMSM daily is that Putin is using oil and gas as a weapon? even when it is a guest who says it, they are never challenged:
27 June: BBC: What are the sanctions on Russia and are they hurting its economy?
Oil and gas
Sanctions targeting its exports have been announced:
The European Union (EU) says it will ban all imports of oil brought in by sea from Russia by the end of 2022
The US is banning all Russian oil and gas imports
The UK will phase out Russian oil imports by the end of 2022
Germany has frozen plans for the opening of a major gas pipeline from Russia
The EU said it will halt Russian coal imports by August
The EU is less keen to impose sanctions on Russian gas, because it relies on it for about 40% of its gas needs.
In March, it said it would reduce gas imports by two-thirds within a year, but has not agreed further action...

Again, you fail at overall strategy.
Bakhmut is the lynchpin of the Ukrainian defensive lines.
Once those lines are breached, Ukraine is F-ed given the open terrain behind those defensive lines...but they already F-ed via the Referenda, so yeah.
‘Referendum day, Peskov issues warning. Zelensky running out of road, what next?’

Ukraine on its 7th mobilization.
Russia on it’s first.
The neo-Yatzi ZelenskyyIdiot Regime demanding and begging for US/NATO tanks. Why is that? Thought Ukrainian tank losses and overall military hardware/equipment were minimal according to the CIA/MI6 fronts ORYX, Bellingcat, Western/US/UK/EU/NATO propaganda-ridden media? Why? I know why as does the Russian MOD.....
Putin is the Nazi.
A dictator for the past 22 years? Putin
Has subordinated industry to his all powerful regime? Putin
Threatens neighbours with his military? Putin
Spouts an ideology of national aggrandizement? Putin.
Putin heads q Nazk regime. You want to remove nazis from Ukraine? Then withdrew Putin’s army.
