Psaki: Chinese refusal to denounce Ukraine invasion 'flies in the face of everything China stands for'

China respects national sovereignty? India & Tibet would disagree.
Basic principals of the UN charter? The Uyghurs would SERIOUSLY disagree.

"There has been, of course, rhetorical support or the absence of clear rhetoric and denunciation – or the absence of denunciation – by China of what Russia is doing," Psaki added. "This flies in the face, of course, of everything China stands for – including the basic principles of the U.N. charter, including the basic principles of respect for sovereignty of nations. So, the fact that China is not denouncing what Russia is doing in and of itself speaks volumes. And it also speaks volumes – not only in Russia and Ukraine, but around the world."

China has no need to denounce Russia because they have nothing to gain by doing so and nothing to lose if they don't. It's not as though Americans are willing to go without their Walmart shelves of crap to show support for Ukraine. Hell no.

Of course she's going to say that. We're looking for leverage with Xi. Wise strategy; paint China as the good guys, set the bar. It puts Xi in a corner.
