Vietnam is a Russian ally, so it would be interesting to see if China does anything, how Putin would respond.

The same was true in 1979 and the Soviets decided it was too much of a logistical problem to provide direct support. Now, as Russia, their available resources (personnel, bases, etc.....) are diminished.

Not too long ago I posted something Pro Russian anti Chinese and about an hour later I received a call from Washington DC if I did not know any better it was someone cursing me out in Chinese. That speaks volumes about this situation.
