Chinese leader Xi Jinping has reportedly made a strong public statement that likely sent shockwaves through the Kremlin: > "China no longer considers it possible to support Russia in its aggressive war against Ukraine. We view Russia's actions as counterproductive and contrary to the principles of international law. We call on Russia to immediately withdraw its troops from Ukrainian territory." But that's not all. According to reports, Beijing is also demanding significant territorial concessions from Russia in the Far East, particularly in Siberia. China no longer wants to pay the enormous economic price for Putin's war. The conflict has had a serious impact on China's economy, trade, and international reputation. Beijing clearly sees that Russia is losing momentum and is now trying to secure an outcome that serves Chinese interests as much as possible. This is no longer a "neutral position." It is open pressure from Russia's most important economic partner.
