China declares position on Ukraine conflict
Beijing asserts it won’t cave in to Washington’s pressure, which it considers irresponsible and futile

Beijing maintains an “independent” stance on the Ukraine crisis, a spokesperson for China’s foreign ministry, Zhao Lijian, said during a press conference on Thursday. The remark came in response to threats made by US Secretary of State Antony Blinken, who warned China on Thursday that Washington would “impose costs” on it should Beijing choose to support Moscow.
Lijian stated that “on the Ukraine issue, China has been independently making its judgment based on the merits of the matter itself in an objective and just manner.”
The Chinese diplomat also stressed that pressure from Washington would not make Beijing change its stance. He added that some US officials were still trying to spread disinformation regarding China’s position – something Lijian described as irresponsible and not conducive to the resolution of the crisis.
In China’s view, the “key to solving the Ukraine crisis is in the hands of the US and NATO,” as these are the “culprits of the crisis,” Lijian said. According to the Chinese diplomat, America and its European allies should “reflect upon their roles in the Ukraine crisis,” as well as “earnestly shoulder due responsibilities and take real actions to ease the situation.”

Russia's divorce from the West has pushed it into China's arms, China is closely monitoring the situation in Ukraine and what is happening there is not what it would like to see. The parties must exercise restraint, avoid escalation, and prevent a humanitarian crisis and the death of civilians.
 
Well keeping up on all of this has to wear you out. It's why whenever you spend time with friends, you make it count with prayers of thanksgiving. I've been doing that considering what's been going on.
Thanks! very good advice - i was just on the porch tonight, -talking with a younger brother tonight, who feels just like I do about the way things are going. Jehovah wants us to to be positive, and realistic at the same time. As time goes by we will see more what Jehovah will provide for those that are really sincere worshipers.
