While Biden's endless excuses for shipping the least amount of military equipment to Ukraine for the maximum amount of allocated cash continue, China is ramping up to become Russia's armorer. In Vietnam, China shipped over a thousand artillery pieces in the first year, just 3 years after a famine in which 30m Chinese died.

The amounts of equipment China could ship today are unthinkable.
Well, with the orders from North America and Europe to China crashing...why do you think steel production and energy usage remains at such a high level....what do you think they are making????
I think they have been banking this Russia Aid till the right time when it is most needed, Russia is due for a supply drop now.
Who knows how many millions of shells are waiting for dispatch.
Let’s see, we are pi$$ing away close to a Billion Dollars A Day on Uke corruption. You globalists get all upset when the only consequence of your sanctions and proxy war, other than hammering the American consumer, is the new Russian/Chinese anti woke globalist alliance. Unlike our proxy who is bleeding the American taxpayer dry, Xi’s proxy hasn’t cost him a dime. In fact, thanks to you woke globalists, Xi swaps Chicom steel for Russian tanks and artillery tubes to bleed the youth of Ukraine dry. And thanks to you globalists’ shortsightedness our only existential enemy is swimming in highly discounted Russian oil and whatever other highly discounted natural resources China needs.
Indeed Xi just gave a Biden a checkmate memo.
Nothing like a Freerepublic wakeup ping for the unwashed Zelenskyites. Keep crowing.
