Russian invasion of Ukraine: Zelenskiy says Chinese citizens working at drone production site in Russia

China should be sanctioned by the EU. This should’ve happened a while back, right now we are helping russia in ukraine by trading with china.
While I agree with your sentiment, the EU is waaaaay more dependent on the Chinese market than the US. This bears catastrophical economical risks. Also the EU would probably harms itself way more than China, so it is debatable if this would make sense at all.
We should hit russia where it hurts, economically.
If we "sanction" china (successfully), russia will just buy labour elsewhere while we create a recession for ourselves.
Yeah, why not? Let us shoot our self in the foot while we are still fucked by the US, just because some chinese dudes are working in Russia.
Some chinese dudes are working in Russia.
This is a gross trivilaization. China is a decisive supporter of Russia in its war against Ukraine and a big threat to Europe and world. Beijing is closely watching Western democracies' reaction to Russia's aggression as they are seeking a war with Taiwan and other neighbours. Just watch China's increasingly aggressive behaviour against practically all its neighbours in Asia.
China is a decisive supporter of Russia in its war against Ukraine
Are they? As far as i know they are selling stuff to the russians, that is a bit different than being an active supporter. Yes, China is observing the conflict, but as far as i think only as a part of the whole self destruction of the west that is currently going on. Regarding the aggressive behavior i can only say that my relatives in Vietnam (some of them active in the military) are seemingly less worried about China than the current way of the US...
They are also buying a lot of oil from Russia, China doesn't want to risk it's business in the west but ideologically it is aligned with Russia.
So does India and everybody else but you dont hear about them supporting russian war of aggression
Because there have not been reports of Indian working in factories in Russia or them being captured at the front lines. The involvement of india and everybody else (what ever that mean) is not comparable to that of China, but I'm not sure what your point is.
Yes but there are reports of Nepalese and Indians fighting on front line
In Ukraine?
Yeah there were some reports about it if you look online
I don't see anything credible, not like there is news on Chinese nationals?
Im just saying that EU is also partly responsible for the russia-ukraine war, all those years buying cheap russian oil and gas has enabled russia to create a formidable army
Posts circulating on Chinese social media encourage 'real men' to join Vladimir Putin's army. And while Beijing censors anything that puts China in a bad light -such as reports on Chinese citizens fighting for Russia and being caught by Ukraine- it doesn't censor Russia's conscription ads. And this is just another among many activities how China support Russia's aggression.
Addition, and as a contrast to that, Indians were ‘duped’ by agents into fighting for Russia, with stories how they got tricked by agents and sent to the battlefield have shocked their families, all of whom are poor - their parents and siblings in India are either tuk-tuk drivers, tea sellers or handcart sellers.

There are CCP sanctioned officers working in russia near the ukraine border. China has been a part of that invasion from the get go.
I think usa is much more of an ally to russia than China
They are all allies, there’s a reason why tiktok promoted trump all the time during the elections.
Yeah pretty much, EU is screwed
Nah US is a temp ally to china, as soon as trump is done the US is back on the side of democracy
