I’m not convinced this is hurting China as much as the article states-China itself, via Covid restrictions, is ‘involved’ in slowing down and interrupting trade and trade routes. They have their own “Reset” agenda.

I think the opposite

This conflict will accelerate plans for China, Russia. india, Pakistan, the Gulf region…to build a new trade and economic order from the Heartland, independent from US and old ( Western European) dominated financial controls that the developing world sees being weaponized against Russia as a US political instrument

The worry is that that main beneficiary of a weakened Russia is China. The Chinese are rapidly supplanting Russian power and influence across Central Asia.

Practically every single thread about Russia and/or Ukraine becomes a war of keywords, like clockwork.

It gets kind of boring.

How much of that $4T found it’s way into the off-shore bank accounts of Obama, Biden, Pelosi & DiFi? That’s a lot of money for bribes.

More wishful thinking? What consumer goods in your nearest store aren’t Chinese? After this is all over, Europe is going to be in economic ruin and the Chinese are going to return to own everything.
