As far as NATO, US, and Russian security strategy goes, that would constitute an act of war by China on Ukraine. Assuming it’s true, of course. Also makes you wonder what Russia promised them for it.

What’s interesting to me is that, despite that explicit assistance from China, Russia is still losing. We all wondered where Russia’s vaunted cyberattack capabilities were at the beginning of the war; it seems like Ukraine managed to weather the attack, but also that Putin’s forces were so weak that even a Ukrainian military bogged down by IT issues was able to beat them back. That might also explain the early successes before Ukraine was able to get its feet under itself.
