when Russia becomes the third world nation in a proxy war.
Russia has been a third world nation since the collapse of the Soviet Union. Politicians just like to use the Russian boogeyman to scare people who remember the Cold War. Putin may be a monster, but China is the real threat.

Whaaat? But China said they weren’t doing that. China wouldn’t just lie like that, would it?
Did you check behind their back to see if their fingers were crossed?
No :(
Where have you been when China lied for the 48352847285627th time this week? 🥲
Around I guess, but I was utilizing the technique of sarcasm there.
And I tried to reference the club penguin meme. I suck at being funny.
Well, shit. Comedy is hard, don’t beat yourself up.
China is widely suspected of supplying Russia with equipment and materials to support their war, however no-one has adduced anything concrete to support that theory so far.
The article itself doesn’t cite much in the way of sources or evidence, other than mentioning a report by Molfar, the open source intelligence agency. Molfar has published reports on the same topic in the past, but there hasn’t been anything recently.
If the Telegraph had new information or evidence they would be shouting a lot louder than this. This is most likely them covering up for a quiet day by dredging up some old rumours and repackaging them as news.
Helicopters, drones, and metals they won’t be able to use at Taiwan.
Not sure that makes it any better. Oppressing a country vs. helping oppress a country.
It:s a shame because supplying that gear to Ukraine would have helped China’s reputation on the international stage and bolstered trade. It would have not been well received by the Kremlin but a losing army can’t invade anyone else.
China and Russia are working together to overthrow the relatively democratic, rules-based US-Euro hegemony. That’s why they announced their super duper special forever friendship shortly before Putin started his latest genocidal land grab.
Probably not for long given the state of the Rouble and the economy. Tech-wise Russia has nothing to offer and when it comes to the stuff China might be interested in, such as ores and oil, well you’d have to not send miners to the front to continue producing them. That Russia of all countries is importing metals should make you stop and think.
Lenin is rotating in his mausoleum.
Russia provides a buffer, it’s the same thing as North Korea. China aids NK to keep US allies as far away from themselves as possible.
The West is just going to have to be the first side to master dominion over the psi-powered mind worms.

Russia has China and India as serious allies?
Yeah… they’re not. China is nobody’s ally.

Uh, excuse me. Granpeople
There is no surprise that communist China would and is supplying their northern neighbor.
If anyone is actually surprised about this, then maybe they’ll be surprised when I give them an amazing deal of being able to buy the official deed to the Golden Gate Bridge for only $300 and a bag of salt and vinegar crisps. Just constant me at 123-456-7890 for details.
Extremely valuable and informative /s
Not metals!
does China have a choice?
Is there free will? Are we all living in the matrix? questions…
