Beijing is “picking a side” and can’t claim to be neutral any more, the US ambassador to NATO tells POLITICO.
China is helping Russia meet its war goals in Ukraine by continuing to sell supplies such as drone technology and gunpowder ingredients to Moscow, the U.S. Ambassador to NATO said in an interview.
“The PRC [People’s Republic of China] cannot claim to be entirely neutral in this case, [and] they are in fact picking a side,” Julianne Smith told POLITICO on Tuesday. “I think when the PRC tries to portray itself as neutral, when it comes to this war, we don’t buy it.”
Smith said the United States was “increasingly seeing materiel support” from China to Russia, adding that this equipment — which can have both civilian and military uses — had played a critical role in helping Moscow achieve some of its aims against Ukraine.
Uhh… so?
Nato is clearly supporting Ukraine too and neither is out of character. Does it suck for Ukraine - absolutely. But this should surprise no one.
We’re talking about rules here … everyone has to follow them … except for the US
Is NATO pretending to be neutral?
That was a bad attempt, try harder.
So you think China is neutral in any way in any anti-west conflict?
Try re-reading the comment you just replied to and this time try to get all the words
Come on. Those who actually believe in “neutrality” are either fools or liars. Of course China would have an opinion on the conflict.
Anyways, the article is garbage and provides no evidence of any wrongdoing. It literally states that there is no evidence of China sending weapons to Russia, but then starts fearmongering and implying that whatever common goods are being sent are actually being used for war.
