At a Security Council meeting on Tuesday, Secretary of State Antony J. Blinken said the council’s priority should be stopping the stream of military aid — including ballistic missiles, drones and artillery shells — from North Korea and Iran to Russia. And he noted that China had sent machine tools, microelectronics and other supplies to Russia’s defense industry as President Vladimir V. Putin presses his invasion of Ukraine.

“If countries stopped supporting Russia, Putin’s invasion would soon come to an end,” Mr. Blinken said.

Russia, in turn, is helping those nations meet their ambitions, including by sharing nuclear technology and “space information” with Iran, Mr. Blinken said. Another senior U.S. official said that while the nuclear aid to Iran seemed to be for use in its civilian nuclear program for now, the space information was more alarming — it could eventually allow Iran to develop capable intercontinental ballistic missiles.

LOL. It took neocon idiots like Blinken 3 years, but they finally figured out - they wanted a proxy war, and they got a proxy war.

It seems that our neocon globohomo America attacking everyone the world over is encouraging alliances against us. China is not going to sit this one out and when it enters then it is WW3.

We should be getting ready for a world war, instead it’s going to come as a complete surprise. The Democrats reaction will be to blame the Republicans and Trump. They think that’s a real solution.
