The Chinese position on the Ukraine issue is pretty interesting. On one hand Russia is a close strategic partner, so they don’t want to alienate them - they need them to counterbalance the US. On the other hand, the PRC takes quite a dim view of separatism and secessionism, particularly since supporting separatism abroad might set a dangerous precedent with regard to Taiwan, Xinjiang, HK etc.

The net result is that China practically abstains from voting on any UN resolution on Ukraine. There have been diplomatic statements of support for Ukraine’s territorial integrity, along with the usual “non-interference” words
