And USA is tariffing everyone. But China the hardest. Forcing all nations to have to trade heavily with China just to survive now. This trade war is USA's greatest gift to Xi ever.
I don't have proof, but I'm pretty sure China and Russia bought the current US government. It's the only thing that makes sense. And the heavy China tariffs are here just to put the nail in the US coffin while convincing idiots to cheer China bad.
Suddenly makes a LOT of sense that it just came out that China is arming Russia, considering anybody with more than one braincell knows that Trump is a Russian asset.
I think differently actually. And unfortunately, I'm not sure it's going to work out for Zelensky, but I don't blame him for trying.
So China is not directly supplying weapons. Zelensky implied as much so far. What he's saying is China is supplying gun powder and artillery shells. With the obvious implication that Russia is filling the shells with the gun powder and making them live. This had probably been happening the whole time. This is the complaints about dual use.
So why now? Well, it's a good time to get China riled up so they'll comment. Zelensky needs weapons, even if China doesn't stop selling to Russia, selling to Ukraine as well would be good. In which case Zelensky can turn around and say then come talk to us, if your neutral you'll let us buy too. Which might have been a good plan if USA wasn't completely fucking insane and keeping China from even talking because they got other shit to deal with.
I was more referring to Putin being owed a favor for manipulating a certain orange idiot into actions that are likely to favor China. But I don't really see anything wrong with your analysis of Zelensky's possible motivations.
Oh yeah, completely agree. Misunderstood that my bad.
I wrote a summary above, but the missing link is the Heritage Foundation, and Idk if bought or partnered with is the better way to put it.
