China’s armed forces secretly trained about 200 Russian military personnel in China late last year and some have since returned to fight in Ukraine, according to three European intelligence agencies and documents seen by Reuters.
I wonder what weapons system they were trained to use?
China hasn’t been in a real war in decades, there isn’t a lot Russia could learn in the way of tactics from them. Fancy new kit that needs training to use sounds far more plausible.
Not unexpected since China is an ally of Russia. But Europe can exploit this by urging China to get Russia to accept a peace proposal. Europe should tell China that with peace Ukraine can do business with China. This is what Europe should propose to Putin. Russia will withdraw from all land it seized from Ukraine after the 2022 invasion. NATO would be dissolved and replaced with a European alliance. Ukraine and Canada would be permitted to join but not the US. All sanctions against Russia will be lifted. Russia will not be required to pay reparations. If Putin doesn’t accept the proposal, the UK and France would send troops to Ukraine.
Why would China want a renewed imperialist alliance?
