Thet are not and they are.

They have disputed borders in the northeast

And they each think their version of socialism is better

But because they are socialist there’s some support that way, more than they’d ever give evil capitalists

“US officials say”..... nameless of course.

The propaganda media can make up anything they want. Don’t buy it.

This is likely about China’s “One Belt, One Road” aka “New Silk Road” project. Some plans for that economic project has Ukraine involved.

Russia/China making plans on what to do after the war is over.

What is natural?

During WWII US and USSR were allies... just because they opposed the same evil.

No different now.

Before Barbarossa, the USSR was Germany's largest trading partner, and told the US to stay out of the "Imperialist War".

True.

And China is still the largest US partner,... do we have any doubts where this is going?

Anyone in the know understands Russia could have totally destroyed Ukraine in days if they sent In the A team. This is just a bloody nose for Zelensky. A real spanking would have left the capitol city in ashes.

The deep state keeps planting these stories to make it sound like the Russian military is a bunch of misfits.

That’s exactly why you don’t see ANY real reporting going on. Russia has used a measured approach as to minimize any “real” civilian casualties.

This is a propopganda chess match while the real story on the ground has yet to be reported. This will be ending shortly.

Putin was in China meeting with Xi just before the Olympics. Don’t you think he would have told Vlad...don’t do it....then?

They hatched a plan....and told Joe they would go ahead with it.

Our media is like an ostrich. They are just now catching on......

China sees a weak Russia and they are making it weaker by design. They will soon make a play for parts of NE Russia!

Now Russia will be relegated to client state status to the Chinese. Never doubt that the Russians have the ability and resources to build very serviceable tanks and nukes. With unlimited Chinese trillions thrown in Xi paralyzes us in this Cold War II.

This move by Xi is all about destroying American capabilities in Asia. Xi is a land based behemoth but has a very hard time projecting that power with the US Navy surrounding him. Xi will help his proxy, Russia, take out those Far East American carriers. By financing the arms buildup the Russians are starting, he forces NATO (me and you in this case) to counter balance the arms imbalance by borrowing trillions to match him. At some point we wonโ€™t have the will or resources left to contain China 4000 miles from the Ukrainian quagmire.
