Nope. Even today, China doesn't support Russia when it comes to each other cor interests, neither does Russia support China when it comes to Chinas own core interests. Have you seen Chinese president/top official officially/publicly saying China stands by Russia in Syria? Have you seen them providing any support to Russia during its campaign in Syria? Etc etc. THE ONLY THING CHINESE OFFICIALS SAY IS WE WANT ALL PARTIES TO SEAT DOWN AND COME TO A DIPLOMATIC SOLUTION SINCE THERE IS NO MILITARY SOLUTION TO THIS CRISIS.lol we all know that's an indirect and polite way of saying it is none of my business. Lmao.
They are right though, its none of their business. The west and Russia can fight it over. China will just come and sign business deals/contracts at the end of the day, no matter who emerges victorious. That's their strategy. I like it though.
lol
