    Yeah, sure…

    From the article you linked… https://www.newsweek.com/china-russia-ukraine-war-dong-jun-conflict-shoigu-1866797

    China’s defense minister, Dong Jun, gave his full support to Russia’s war in Ukraine during a video call with his Russian counterpart, Sergei Shoigu.

    China’s newly appointed defense chief and Shoigu discussed boosting military cooperation and coordination as the Russia-Ukraine war drags on. Tensions surrounding the Ukraine crisis have tested the resilience of the China-Russia partnership, with Beijing supporting the Kremlin’s plans economically rather than openly amid international pressure.

    The Russian government released a video of Dong Jun’s message to Shoigu, in which he said China would stand with Russia on the Ukraine issue despite pressure from the U.S. and Europe.

      That’s literally not the article I linked. Also we are talking about a call to a ceasefire, which China has called for on both conflicts.

      *Edit: Also

      Beijing supporting the Kremlin’s plans economically rather than openly amid international pressure.

      China is also the US’s second largest trade partner. Your article is just repeating that yes, China will sell to countries that commit war crimes. They never said they would stop and your article is loudly proclaiming it. That’s nice, but irrelevant.
