The two most powerful countries in Asia are refusing to side against Russia over the war in Ukraine.
Now that the US and Europe are imposing new sanctions, Putin’s “Pivot to Asia” will gain even more urgency. So far, Russia has gotten diplomatic dividends for its efforts.
US and European leaders are preparing “painful” sanctions on Russia, which could include sabotaging Germany’s Nord Stream 2 pipeline & hitting Russian gas giant Gazprom
They're fueling the Ukraine crisis to justify the economic attack

Several thousand heavily armed Chechens have been transferred to the border with Ukraine. In the Voronezh region, near the border with Ukraine, there is a field camp of the Chechen National Guard of Russia. Chechens arrived with heavy weapons and armoured vehicles.
@Unknown7771@ClintEhrlich Also Ukraine had a Western-backed coup in 2014 to eventually plant NATO and attack Russia. Ukraine has been setting up to attack and take Donbas for this purpose.

@CanUNotC @jeff_kaye@steven_pifer You literally twisted it. lol. US isnt going to get into a direct war of course but instead use innocent proxies to weaken and surround Russia. That's what NATO was created for. Ukraine region is the final "check mate" against Russia.
