China sees NATO allies backing Ukraine as a potential threat to its strategy in the Indo-Pacific.
NATO said last year that it intended to focus more on China and Beijing is expected to play a large role in the bloc's strategy moving forward.
"NATO, a military organization in the North Atlantic, has in recent years come to the Asia-Pacific region to throw its weight around and stir up conflicts,” said Wang Wenbin, a Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman.
China increasingly sees the war in Ukraine -- and the roles of the United States and its NATO allies in backing Kyiv against Moscow -- as a reflection of future tensions to come between the military bloc and Beijing in the Indo-Pacific. Ever since Russian tanks first crossed into Ukraine on February 24, Beijing has walked an awkward line between not giving outright support to Moscow's invasion while accusing the United States and other NATO countries of provoking the war by allowing the security alliance to expand eastward despite protests from the Kremlin.
Now, as the war continues to grind on with the Russian military suffering major setbacks on the battlefield, China has ramped up its rhetoric to warn about NATO and the United States' footprint in Asia.
"NATO, a military organization in the North Atlantic, has in recent years come to the Asia-Pacific region to throw its weight around and stir up conflicts," Wang Wenbin, a Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman, said in late April.

Thanks for the warning.
Now drop dead.
Too bad MATO is so obsessed with Russia that it has nothing left to combat China.
A sect within the Q-tards believes Xi is teamed up with Putin and Donald Trump to destroy "the deep state" in the world.
There are more than a few FReepers I know for a fact believe that. Not sure if Preston is among them though.
China isn’t exactly in the North Atlantic.
Not sure what your Qtard theory is, but Trump had NATO right; America pays for the privilege of protecting Europe. Normal people can see thru this while Neocons, not so much.
