Why does China keep supporting Russia over Ukraine? | DW News

- China's top diplomat Wang Yi is in Moscow, meeting Russian leaders, just days ahead of the one-year anniversary of Russia's invasion of Ukraine. Wang Yi held a series of meetings, in the backdrop of a war that has rapidly shaped a 'no limits' partnership between Moscow and Beijing. The latter is now reported to be considering supplying 'lethal support' to Russia. A development that the US has cautioned would be a 'red line'. Amidst those possibilities, we are looking at a deeper question. Why does China keep supporting Russia over Ukraine? Especially given that China appears to acknowledge that Russia has violated Ukraine’s territorial integrity. Are China and Russia increasingly on the same side or is Beijing still as it claims, impartial? And is there a point at which support for Russia over Ukraine becomes untenable for China?

#China #Russia
Because enemy of my enemy is my friend.
there is no friends, there is only interest
Except that is demonstrable bollocks. They're both enemies.
@@chuidavid China's interest is the U.S gets bogged down and occupied in Ukraine. While Russia continue to destroy all Western made weapons.
I can't imagine that China is watching Russia grow weaker and not thinking...I remember when Russia kicked us when we were down, and stole our land.
@@sunnydisinfectantwhen was this exactly? just curious
Every country is free to take a side, we in America just watching how Europe is deindustrializing and we're still selling expensive gas 🤣🤣
But still thinking they're smarter than western Europe and Asia🤣

Why no one realised that A Competitor is asking ITS competitor to Fight a friend?😅 at the same time continue to attack ITS competitor? What kind of logical relationship is that😂
yeah, and last reporter located in Taipei )))
because Russia insists that Taiwan is part of China. Any country states this, get huge support from China, not only Russia.
Majority of countries in the world recognize that fact.
True but I can't imagine that China is watching Russia grow weaker and not thinking...I remember when Russia kicked us when we were down, and stole our land in Manchuria
@@zsarimaxim692 Not the people in Taiwan. Why can't they have a word? Why is only China allowed to talk?
Russia and China are both evil. They have not done much good for humanity in recent history.
PRC's economy, truly speaking, depends on West. Its much more about posturing.
China does not support Russia, China just doesn‘t oppose Russia, cause China and Russia are each other's biggest neighbor and important trading partner, there is no reason to mess up the relationship between the two countries because of a war in Europe
Absolutely agreeing with you. China has a normal economic trade with Russia. What is this crying “China is going to support Russia with weapons” all about?
Value of trade with Russia is minimal compared to the trade they stand to lose with sanctions. Russia's economy is the size of Italy. This is not an economic decision.
china must support russia because russia cheap oil export to china this is the reason why china become richest nation..
They are both Authoritarian and have future plans for expansion, so they lie to the opposition (who are now enemies in some cases). China and Russia have been caught extending an artificial olive branch, and now the whole world knows what Intelligence agencies have known all along.
If you're a neighbor(China) and see your neighbor(Russia) raping and beating another neighbor(Ukraine). The laws said you(USA/NATO) should give aids and help that neighbor who was raped and beaten, China is not doing that. Instead, China is assisting, aiding, and abiding Russia with its criminal acts. This is really what is going on here. It's time for WWIII.
Because China knows that it is next if Russia falls. The same way Gondor was next after Rohan.
exactly, the united states has made it quite clear with recent actions, statements and political stance that they want to have a war with china.
Man the u.s don’t want that smoke with china why y’all think the u.s is so tuff when it’s full of girly men the us has to have 25 other countries a coalition to invade they never go in alone china will kick the u.s az period
Why would Russia fall? So you really see western troops entering Rusian soil for a huge grande war. Yeah the west would have nothing to lose from that?! Rule no 1 self interest and self preservation come for any nation always on no 1. The West would lose economically more then it would gain. So that never will happen. Same as Russia never will invade Eu as same principle..it would lose economically more then it would gain. Would be a threat for its control system. Same for West. So no Russia would never fall and the West is never gone attack Russia openly and frontal and full force. This is not LOTR.
@@blijebij Who said anything about the west going into Russia with their military. If they economically strangle and isolate Russia + destabilise the country's leadership then Russia has fallen. They become as irrelevant as North Korea.
Then Americas eyes can turn to China.
@@squirrel9999 The West is able to isolate Russia completely economically? That is not logical consistant. There is no complete controle economically from the west over Russia. So that aint happening. So either way Russia would never fall.
Not just China. Applies to others like India. Most countries outside Europe are generally indifferent. Neither support nor condemn.
A million+ indians died in ww2 on the front lines to save the bottoms of the whites. Would whites die for Indians? I can guarantee you that this will never happen again.
Not really. India is not condemning Russia because there had been times in past when we were threatened militarily by west, while Russia stood by us in those times. No one can shun such an ally, India or not. And whom did west backed then? Pakistan, a rogue nation where likes of Osama Bin Laden were hiding after conducting terrorist attacks' on west...I would say that's utter failure of west's foreign policies to back a terror nation while making an enemy out of a democratic nation.
It's not their war anyway, plus Europe has been very racist to Indians and Asians in general. I think it's time for Asia to show Europe that it's your problem alone
@@daniyalbbd5281 Apart from Ukraine and other none-NATO aligned satellites, like Moldova, Europe is under no threat of being invaded by Russia.
Not really. Chinese are really keen to join in. But then, their empire would fall apart.
Why is DW not giving wide coverage for the Seymour report on the explosion of the more stream pipeline??? Why is DW not calling for a German government full investigation of the incident???
Because they don’t want to know.
Europe is under the control of financial institutions.
"Hersh, what is your source?" "Just trust me, bro."
How is it in Beijing? What have you read on Tianenman square or other sensitive issues? Oh wait they are censored or arrested away lol. Yeah your projecting so hard here lol.
Because Hersh had one anaon source AND blowup pipelines is an act of war the U.S. cannot expect to remain secret for long if not caught red handed. Then there is the serious question, what would Biden gain? So, absent a motive, there doesn't seem to be a motive...
Because they are both ruled with iron fist by a megalomaniac king. 🤴 👑
have you been on both countries?
Like singapore then 🥳😘
China will act friendly until they see weakness. Then they will take over power. Look at Chinese communist party current plans around rest of world. This is a power play.

@@magnem1043 And you’re source is????
Different goals as In more than that
It's no coincidence china wanted to burn all the churches & Russia came into this war on a de-nancification note when all this started
China has been the only one that has faultered in that stance with any hesitation since the war started by asking Russia for it to come to an end
Now you are seeing the merge
I believe they are fed up with the west way of living & controlling there people plus sheltering it from the real world with a corrupt monetary system
Anyone ever wonder why cave writing looks more Chinese or russian, Ukrainian or Japanese??...... Ever wonder why the WEST had to come in all grandiose & create another world to start with??
When did the alienation of these countries start exactly & why do they hate are ideology so much
Know your history, this all started with the Romans & the world orders we all keep voting for
Mad but true
@@magnem1043 Hence why the west are trying their hardest to intimidating/weakening both Russia 🇷🇺 and China 🇨🇳 in order to break them up, as in their/west intention towards Russia 🇷🇺. In order for the west to looting/thieving their natural resources . ( America in particular ).
Very interesting hearing China say this to Germany
Maybe the larger question should be..."why does Western Europe keep supporting the US in everything it says and does"...???
They have the same values, liberty and freedom. That is why the US left Germany, Italy, Afghanistan, Iraq, Korea, Vietnam, Japan and so on. If you think Russia or China does the same, i don't think so.
@@citronski...If you think the US is truly free, think again. The US gives the illusion of freedom, while simultaneously seeking to control, constrain, mold and indoctrinate their citizens, creating new laws that are unconstutional and forcing minority views and opinions on the vast majority, even through legislative means. Either way, the US should not be seeking to impose their will and cultural practices upon all other sovereign nations of the world, there is an old axiom that still holds true...
Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely...
This essentially means that it is not good for the world that one power is in control of everything, balance of power within the world arena requires that more than one nation have enough power to keep themselves from being dominated by another in an effort to subdue the entirety of the world leaving no balance in spite of any ideology seen to be better than another. This is why wars are fought, one power attempts to dictate to another and conflict ensues, while the lesser powers or forced to capitulate with one or another superpower.
The world needs more than one superpower at all times, or absolute power will corrupt the entire planet, it's all about checks and balances...!
@@colindavis1496 Colin Davis from Texas Oblast tells me that the US is not free, it's people are marionettes and they are only truly free once they let China and Russia in their heart. I believe everything you said, comrade.

Well saying "dictators support dictators" do not sound very good.
actually he is talking to the point:
root cause: nato east expansion. i remember the statements in 1990 clearly.

I love how "china thinking about sending weapons" is almost treated as a truth even though this only rests on the claims of some us-representatives.

"The enemy of my enemy is my friend"
Simple - Because China doesn't want to become Russia's enemy only because NATO said so. As a matter of fact, NATO is already treating China as their enemy. Would you listen to your enemy? Would you??
It's the old "The enemy of my enemy is my freind." So, as the WAR goes on, US, and other western military stockpiles and resources, are being diverted and drawn down. Thus, weakening any potential military resonse to the Tawian situation. Also, cheap oil doesn't hurt.
Alternatively… it has jolted NATO out of its slumber and they now see it all for what it is. And alternatives to Russian energy exist.
and ideologically china is a fully ethnic state if not one of the most ethnically integral and rusia itself dreams about it for long time the rusians conducted ethnic cleansing
@@jarrodgill7576 k
They are producing it too. Building up weapons around the world. Why?
US intervention is the main reason why China doesn’t belong to Japan today.
They share a large border. Its essential and natural for them to have a very strong relationship.
Europe should also have a good relationship with Russia.
True but I can't imagine that China is watching Russia grow weaker and not thinking...I remember when Russia kicked us when we were down, and stole our land in Manchuria
@@sunnydisinfectant A war between Russia and China would only benefit the west. It would be foolish for China to betray their most important ally.

The retired PLA Colonel equates NATO expansion with a committed but unresolved or unpunished crime of murder. 🤨 Riiiigghhhhttt. Tell me more.
That blew me away. The guy is using the excuse of "oh, it's ok b/c Russia China have their own relationship." And as you pointed out, "oh it's b/c of NATO expansion". Ok buddy great. So when China tries to expand into the SE Pacific, the rest of us have the green light to commit genocide on China? Jesus Christ, we really need more people to think critically so they can see these obvious lies and hypocrisy.
I can't imagine that China is watching Russia grow weaker and not thinking...I remember when Russia kicked us when we were down, and stole our land in Manchuria 🤨
No, what he is saying is that like murder, China acknowledges that Russia is in the wrong, but one have to examine the motivation for murder, like self defence.
@@bonnie7898 how does one define defensive? Neutralising a hostile target is also defensive, NATO has been involved in defensive wars in the Middle East for the last two decades, you see what I am getting at, it’s one of those terms that can be open to interpretation.
@@bonnie7898 "defensive alliance"
tell that to lybia and syria.
As a previous commentator mentioned if Russia falls China will be in a bad way. It will lose its most powerful ally. I compare the present situation to the outbreak of WW1 in 1914. I believe that a key factor was that Germany could not afford the defeat of its key ally Austria-Hungary. Then Germany would have stood alone against the major powers of Europe. China and Russia have a similar relationship. If Russia goes down China will stand alone.
Germany before WWI, like china today, would not need to stand alone against anyone, if they would get rid of their Imperialist goals of expansion
@@SelfProclaimedEmperor There is no evidence that China has "imperialist ambitions, but plenty of evidence that the declining imperialist power, and yes the US is an imperialist power, is desperately trying to prevent China's rise even if it means war! If you think that only western countries matter then China would be "alone" with the collapse of Russia, but 85 percent of the world population is in the Global South, and they do not support US strategy of Cold War 2.0! Incidentally, World War I was pushed by Britain, the declining premier imperial power, against Germany, the rising power! Germany lost but Britain, nevertheless, declined with the premier imperial mantle taken over by the US!
@@ahmedakhan1 tell it to the people's of Tibet, Xinjiang, inner Mongolia, Manchuria, they are occupied by china and they do not belong to han Chinese.
if russia falls china will claim siberia and get all the natural resources they need for their industry. so in a way it will help china more
China will stand alone against what? China grew its economy for the last 30 years on relations withe west. The west never threatened it with military action. So stand alone against what?
Should any country criticize US supplying weapon to support the Ukraine conflict? The only way to get out of this mess is to have peaceful negotiations and settlements.
China dont support Ukraine dont mean that it supports Russia. In fact, China dont support either side and its diplomatic tradition is never to take sides.

The speakers nicely avoided the fact , today Russia tomorrow it is China . Most important is Russia has a huge border with China and will never allow Russia to fall . This is the MAIN REASON not those other issues /reasons by the speakers. The same reasons like the Koraean war not allowing North Korea to fall
Except that their even larger neighbor USSR fell into pieces not too long ago. And Korea was divided too.
Besides the possibility that a even further divided Russia might create a landscape of bordering nations full of conflicts, a divided Russia might be good for China. Whatever new nations that would emerge along the border, China could easily take economic advantage of them and get likley be able to get even cheaper fossil fuels.
China respects Russia, period.
@@abrakkehakka1357 well I don’t think China wants USSR to fall…It was problems Inside the Soviet Union…

Common wold under CCP
Oh god just call it what it is. One country taking advantage of another.
Well, you don't know why?? The NATO nations have been supporting Ukraine, that's an easy answer. While the West can openly supply weapons to Ukraine, why can't China do? Where is the justice?
so if your neighbour attacks someone who has done nothing to them, in order to stay friendly with your neighbour, you don't support the victim...yeh, right !!!
So you want China to intervene in the politics and military of other countries? This is exactly what the U.S. fears about Chinese influence，All China needs to do at this time is to maintain good economic and trade relations with these two countries.
China does not think like the west. Communist countries think and act alike.
Learn the root cause why Russia invaded Ukraine,don't show your ignorance
@@hypocritehater1673 The root cause is Putin's egotistical ambition to go down in history as the person who reconstituted the USSR...he has stated that objective many times...
Does China keep supporting Ukraine as supporting Russia? I don't see any differences in treating the two countries.
You’re an expert?
乌克兰人很混蛋，不应该支持乌克兰。乌克兰国会公开支持中国国内的恐怖分子，这对中国而言是不可接受的，乌克兰支持中国国内的恐怖分子，中国就可以支持乌克兰国内的俄罗斯士兵，这很公平
Why does China keep supporting Russia over Ukraine? It appears that you're not aware who are allies and trading partners in this line of questioning. It's tantamount of making a question like this: Why is the USA & EU keep on supporting Ukraine when Ukraine is not a member of NATO & EU?
I’ve bought 3 sets of ohm Walsh 2’s (one was 2.2000) in the past. 2 of 3 sets came from owners who passed away. Of course this wasn’t revealed in the listing.
It's like asking Germany why they continue to bow to America knowing what America did to the pipline ..
🙄
You're a m0r0n
Germany supports US because trade with US brings them 50% of their income? Well, this is not the case of China with Russia. China's biggest trading partner is also US itself. So comparing China's support of ruzzia to Germany's support of US is the dumbest thing one's brain can ever produce.
Why NATO supporting Ukraine? Just like same question? Why USA doesn’t make mediate for this conflict?
No one invaded Russia, cities and villages weren't pummeled in Russia, no Russian citizens murdered.
Nato supports Ukraine, because they got invaded, which is clearly breaking international laws. Russia would never accept the US as a mediator, so offering such a thing is pointless. Only neutral countries can be mediators, so that they are accepted by both sides.
Ridiculous. If NATO keeps their promise not to expand, there is no war. Just as I come to save you, but it was me who pushed into water.
God this place is Craw Ling with CCP bots.
Mediate what? Putin wants ukraine to cease to exist. In all occupied areas russia burns Ukrainian books and forces people to take Russian citizenship. There are torture chambers and mass graves. Ukraine wants russia out of their country and why wouldn’t they?
And why does DW keeps supporting Ukraine?
How many weapons has DW sent to Ukraine?
He understands sovereignty but then talks about China & Taiwan ffs
Bear and dragon 🔥
Fascists unite? Well fascists like the Russian and Chinese government will always play eachother and never truly support eachother.
Who is the aggressor? USA is telling everybody what to do. I don’t see China telling the USA and NATO what to do.
China is attempting to do exactly that in the Pacific.
China is telling the smaller countries how to do. Like on how they bully Vietnam and Philippines.
Of course China doesn't dare telling NATO countries to do. Bad for their own economy
China: We care about sovereignty. About Chinese sovereignty.
The question is why NATO keep supplying weapons to Ukraine when they want the war to stop?
How is that a question? We keep saying why. We dont want Russia to win.
I wonder if the Russian market is big enough to support Chinese exports in case the west sanctions them for attacking Taiwan. Russia thought we were dependent on their gas and oil, does China believe we cannot diversify our investments into neighboring countries?
How could it, it's basically 120 million people, their trade with China is measured in billions. The wests trade with China is measure in trillions and they think we are afraid to decouple from them. That is their calculus. The west has lost it's industrial base and so it depends on China.
Russia made the same calculation with energy and the west. See how that turned out.
so what? west =40 countries while 200 countries in the world!. you are living in the 19th century and think west = god, can sanction anyone, and decide everything? you west people feel people in southeast asia, middle east, middle asia, africa, south american as null? G7 has only 40% of the global economy and this rate is dropping very fast. You are no LONGER the dominator of the world now. You are nothing.
The world is big enough a market without the west.
also, what is your sanctions to Russia? their GDP only drops 2.1% last year, and their trade recovered to the level before war starts. But, look at the inflations in your own country. You have more expensive energy cost, such that your product can hardly compete with their asian competitors who enjoys cheap Russian energy. Hence, many US and German companies move to China where has cheap energy, full supply chain, hardworking workers, such that they can survive. Dont think you are the god, and other countries must beg you to survive.
When did China attack Taiwan?
They support? You're saying China donated weapons, equipment and war resources to Russia?
It's also like asking: is US support to Ukraine free (donated)?
Not donating, but helping by selling the weapons and ammunition, like how NATO do to Ukraine right now
Why does USA keeps stopping the peace effort?
China does not have natural resources like Russia In the current climate where America slaps on sanctions as a mean to keep everyone in line it s critical to its survival to lock steps with Russia. China may not like how Russia deal with Ukraine but to them it s not their priorities and i can understand that.
Because historically russia built china's political system.
Expand?
and now the relationship has turned. They are fundamentally incompatible with each other.
The battle of wit and might between the west and China is truly a sight to behold.
Baby!! This is entertainment that'll be remembered for CENTURIES!!
Love to watch it all unfold
this battle is not new. just to remind you the west had occupied and colonized china almost 150 years ago.
China has to tread lightly. They need the American military and don't realise how much.
@@tengrici431 And that's precisely where the irony lies, good sir/madame.
Let us see how the Wolf & the Dragon fare in this bout...
@@ChipmunkRapidsMadMan1869 don't know about "need", seeing as how China is actively pushing back on the U.S.' attempt to barricade it geopolitically and militarily.
I would definitely say that BOTH China & America need to tread carefully simply because they're nuclear powers.
It's not rocket science. Any1 with a brain can clearly see where this is headed
@@chalgoode6449 i have known many chinese people. as far as i know they have not forgotten the humilation at that time. imagine the opium addiction of chinese people just to make some money.
Lol that murder analogy doesn't work in any way xD "Here mr. murderer, we let you go because you were pissed at the frieds of the victim, have a good day" xD wtf
This is the international order if Russia and China rule. Look at Syria, look at Ukraine, Look at the Uighurs, this is the future for most of Asia.
I suspect US, south America and Europe will stay free, but it looks grim for Asia. What can India do against China with Russia as a partner? What can Pakistan? Indonesia? Bangladesh? These will be the first. Then of course Japan, Taiwan, South Korea and Phillipines.
THE ISSUE OF UKRAINE WAR must not be examined superficially. The Ukraine war is one issue among many between Russia and the US. To think that the Ukraine war is simply an action that started 2/24/22. That is an infantile approach to a strategy that started at the dismemberment of the USSR. China has a correct view of the US proxy war in the Ukraine. The Chinese Global Security Initiative is a good way to end the UKraine war as well as other conflicts in the future. The only world leader today is Xi Jinping!! Other leaders are at best regional politicians.
You can't force everyone to support you
I can't imagine that China is watching Russia grow weaker and not thinking...I remember when Russia kicked us when we were down, and stole our land.
You can't, but the rest of the world is watching China seeing a country invade another and butcher its civilians, and responding by throwing up its hands and say "well there's two sides to this, I'll continue to support Russia". The world won't forget, and certainly Ukraine, the EU and NATO won't.
Yes, You cant force Taiwanese People to accept Xing Ping's tyranny.
@@sunnydisinfectant How many times do you plan on repeating this dunce comment.? You ignoramus
It is in China's strategic interest that Russia and the USA should each become weaker through a prolonged Russia-Ukraine war. China has its eye on not only Taiwan but also Kamchatka.
Do you even know what the climate is north of China?
@@pwn5047 Tundra, I suppose the resources it may hold are more valuable though..
@@pwn5047 It's still very empty, like in the worldmap I use as a wallpaper at the momentagricultural
Just give Kamchatka and most of Siberia to China. The West can rebuild the remaining part of dead Russia in its own image. This way we can avert WW3 for 30 years, hopefully more.
@@jojolafrite90 it is empty not because there are few people .. but because life is very hard and expensive.
climate infrastructure accessibility..
A friend is a friend is a friend get it !
It's because they are allies and have common global interests,they see similar challenges and believe they have a chance to do something against it as independent countries but more importantly under the brics corporation.
This is far too intelligent an answer for the brainlets who watch DW.
China sees Russia as a discount market for cheap resources. Russia has nothing more to offer than this to them. They are a junior partner.
yes , I would argue Taiwan is in the same precarious position as Ukraine.
Therefore EU must trade with same amount of caution as we do for Russia.
@@studytime2570 Taiwan's economy has a higher strategic value than the Ukrainian's
我不明白这有什么 难以理解的，难道中国应该坐视俄罗斯战败，北约的势力占据中国的北方，完成对中国的战略合围，然后自己成为（或许已经成为）美国的下一个目标？北约看似很尊重主权（当他们不在忙于轰炸另一个国家时），那么请问有谁尊重过中国对香港和台湾的主权？中国要为美国对中国的围攻做好准备，支持俄罗斯是唯一的选择，如果是美国或任何一个其他国家，在这种情况下又有什么选择？
必须支持俄罗斯
很多人理解不了Nato=Usa，欧盟=Usa，俄乌战争=美俄战争，乌克兰就是个战场而已。台湾是美国的另一个战场
No 2 country should have a good relationship without US approval😂😂😂
when I looked at the title, I thought he was talking about Ukrain and US asymmetrical partnership.
US and any other country? China treat their partners wkth more respect than US
just like teeth and lips.If the lips are gone, the teeth will be cold.
Unless you close your mouth.
@ r3l4x How do you close your mouth without lips?
@ Wiegraf Of course it's just a metaphor, can't you read it? Without Russia, China certainly doesn't just have to worry about teeth. It's a matter of life and death. The United States will do anything to suppress China's rise.
@@r3l4x69 You can look up the Thucydides Trap, which is an iron law in international relations. Therefore, there must be a war between China and the United States.
More important question why has the United States and its allies not boycotted everything from China? instead of supporting the friend of my enemy.
Because they have no guts😂🤣😂
US and its allies still using Russian Fertilizer, Gas, Oil, Uranium...etc. American's food giant Cargill still operating in Russia. They have shamelessly exempt what they needs from Russia.
Because we consume so many essential things manufactured in China. Boycotting everything from China would be infinite times worse than the problems Covid created. World economy would crash in an instant. The democratic world can only slowly decrease Chinas importance. And the governments in the democratic world are also taking such actions. But again… it will take a long time for such a transition to happen. And likely can the “western” world never be completely economically independent from China. But perhaps enough.
For now only Chinese corporations, technology, individuals, etc. can be sanctioned.
5G plans canceled, Silk Road plans canceled, factories moving out of China, sounds like a long term boycott to me.
Because I'm poor and cant afford it. If I became a billionaire I wouldn't mind paying $3000 for toilet paper.
Maybe China knows something we don’t.
And that Thanos snap is telling
