Russia seeks military aid from China — reports
Chinese aid is never free, the question is what are they asking for payment, and can Russia afford it.
You mean they will act like the US does and in particular how it treats the EU?An uncomfortable friendship? China's Russia problem
The "friendship" between Russia and China is very much a "friendship" in citations. Both countries would stab each other in the back in a heartbeat if that became the most advantegous move. It's all about being useful to each other, and the question is, can Russia be useful to China or not.
Phew! We managed to get past that one!The US government has told Beijing there will be severe consequences if it helps Moscow avoid sanctions or aids the Russian military.
US warns China there will 'absolutely be consequences' if it helps Russia evade Western sanctions
Ahead of a meeting in Rome, the United States warns China it will face consequences if it decides to assist Russia in evading sanctions imposed against it in light of its invasion of Ukraine.www.abc.net.au
It's ruining him and his country.Phew! We managed to get past that one!
Oh, wait...didn't we tell Putin that there would be serious consequences if he invaded Ukraine? How is that one working?
I doubt China will do this, they are the factory of the world, they are not going to risk getting hit by sanctions for a country that cannot really be of such value to them that this is worth the riskRussia seeks military aid from China — reports

Sure. In another few years Russia will be an economic wasteland while Ukraine will be a physical wasteland. Great trade, isn't it?It's ruining him and his country.

I'm being disingenuous? Well alrighty then!!As always, you're being disingenuous.
If Biden ordered the US to invade Russia you'd be crying. When Biden limits the US response to sending US weapons to Ukraine you whine like a school girl.
You couldn't care less about Ukraine. With you everything is about Joe Biden, because in 2020 he whipped your Commander Bone-Spurs.

1.5 million Ukrainian refugees and 5000 dead Ukrainians, so far, are happier than a cat that the Russian economy is suffering.Pretty well thank you.
