Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has stated that Russia is importing petrol, calling it the rightful result of the work of the Security Service, the Armed Forces, intelligence and Ukrainian weapons manufacturers.
Quote: "Today, there were also reports on our entirely justified strikes against Russian targets – against their logistics and fuel infrastructure. I am grateful to our warriors for their precision. Russia chooses war, Russia destroys our people’s lives, and must be held accountable – our long-range capabilities will increase.
I have bad news for you. China isn’t actually waiting for “russia to win a war first”. They are sitting back, encouraging and aiding ruzzia to use ALL of it’s resources and abilities, and become even weaker in the process. Then, when ruzzia is negligible soon, it might be time to repay some historical insults, hey? And, if by some million to one chance, ruzzia wins against Ukraine, well, China can use that in it’s Taiwan strategy. It’s a win either way, for China. China also has nukes, and I’d bet theirs will work, unlike the ruzzian ones that haven’t been maintained for decades because ruzzian generals all need cash.
Then why did you bring it up? My entire post was an argument that China has no incentive to want Russia to win the war. Did you intend to respond to some other post?
