What would China gain by confronting Russia for what it's doing in Ukraine?
The article states that U.S. diplomats urged China to help avert the war in Ukraine, but what I don't understand is what does China have to gain by doing so? Russia invading Europe is the best thing that can happen to China since the U.S. will have its hands tied in dealing with Russia instead of China in the South China sea, and it makes Russia seem like a much bigger threat in the eyes of the public countering the recent efforts by U.S. media to paint China as a bigger evil and threat to the rest of the world.
So what would China gain in doing so?
