What a pack of self-serving bull Beijing just dropped in its supposed “peace proposal” for Russia’s war on Ukraine.
Most glaringly, it ignores the fact that Russia is China’s “unshakable” ally, so declared at the Xi Jinping-Vladimir Putin sitdown last February — at which Xi plainly signed off in advance on Putin’s decision to invade, asking only that Moscow hold off until the Olympics wrapped up in Beijing later that month.
That the war’s gone far worse than Putin ever imagined is no skin off Xi’s nose, of course: China’s profited immensely by being Russia’s buyer of last resort this past year, and Beijing only benefits from all the Russian and NATO arms used up in the conflict. Xi’s only goal is to bolster his own world power.
