Russia Ukraine war, page-175206

I totally agree. China simply wants a continuation of its
amazing rate of economic growth and, IMO , it will do
whatever it takes to continue that despite the US defacto
Economic War on China.

IMO this Ukraine War is a strategy by the USA to weaken
Russia and serve as an economic shot across the bow to China .

But of course China has anticipated Russian/Ukraine war type
economic sanctions by securing its supply and distribution routes
via the BRI of which the economic aid to countries crossed by the BRI
is merely rent, IMO.

China's major western consumer market is Europe...(not the USA)
which includes the Ukraine which by the way is a BRI member.

The Ukraine's BRI membership complicates China's assistance
to Russia in this war because, IMO, China sees all BRI members as
also being members of the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation
which at this stage is a milder form of NATO led by China.
Eventually the SCO will be incorporated into the BRICS as the BRICS expand, IMO.
