President Joe Biden’s national security adviser, Jake Sullivan said Sunday on ABC’s “This Week” that U.S. officials have not seen China “take the step of providing weapons to Russia” to aid their efforts in the war in Ukraine.
Partial transcript as follows:
RADDATZ: The administration has also warned China not to offer lethal military assistance to Russia. What can you share about what China could do?
SULLIVAN: Well, all I can say is what you’ve heard from the secretary of state, you’ve heard from other officials in the administration, and you just heard from President Biden, which is, we have, at this point, not seen them take the step of providing weapons to Russia for purposes of the war in Ukraine. We are watching closely. We know they haven’t taken it off the table. And we are sending a clear message, as are our European allies, that this would be a real mistake because those weapons would be used to bombard cities and kill civilians, and China should want no part of that.

All of NATO is giving weapons and money to the Ukraine in this proxy war.But the only thing the MSM is skeerd of is China giving aid to Russia. M’kay....
China not allowed to do what we do every day.
The Russians should be very diligent and cautious. If the Chinese start supplying munitions, they will probably be transported on the trans Siberian railroad. During the Biden Administration there seems to be many catastrophic and disastrous train derailments and wrecks in areas that do not support Biden.
“ that this would be a real mistake because those weapons would be used to bombard cities and kill civilians, and China should want no part of that.”
Sooooo…. providing weapons is bad now?
take the step of providing weapons to Russia
——-
They certainly will, if no other reason but to test their products against the collective West in the field. Perfect opportunity!
Medved just mentioned in his last speech they are very pleased with the US made captured weapons- he even went as far to say “ We have learned a few things”.
Do recall a few of our M1 tanks were destroyed in Iraq by advanced Russian RPGs, supplied to test them out….there are still a few M1 hulks sitting in Anniston awaiting rebuild and being cannibilized.
The US sending billions and weapons to Ukraine: ok
China sending weapons to Russia: not ok...
I don’t get it...
‘We Are Watching Closely’
Oh, I’ll bet the Chinese are terrified of that. What are you going to do? Unleash the twitter rage battalions on them? Please
Russia’s factories are churning out munitions on a massive scale, but I suppose there are areas where China could shore up some shortages.
SHOULD? Whether China does or doesn't, it sure as heck won't be an issue of Russia being overly naughty in targeting.
M1’s destroyed by Russian RPGs:

I notice these clowns can’t control or find where a bunch of balloons in the sky come from, but they sure as hell have a close idea on whether China is supplying Russia with any munitions.
And what if they were? How about the US and China not give Russia or Ukraine anything? Sounds fair.
This sounds like cover for China whom Biden calls a competitor, not an adversary.
I suppose there are areas where China could shore up some shortages.

True, Vlad has his 6-8 arms manufacturers working round the clock preparing quote” for a 30 month war against NATO. Reference Medveds speeches.
Fact is China needs to test their weapons against Western arms…Biden’s Ukie war-a match made in heaven.
My money goes on Vlad, he lacks nothing -metals, propellants, manufacturing equipment, ditto with China’s massive production capability.
What will it take to cut trade with China?
Sorry jake, no sale
