I think I know who they are talking about.

It must be this fella:

His travels around the world, but his China videos were his highest viewed videos to date. A one-man vlogger peddling Chinese propaganda. If the CCP is funding him for propaganda, then that is a miserable budget. Against the millions-strong army of Jai Hind keyboard and mouth cannon warriors funded by the BJP, this one-man vlogger could already scare the Indian government. Imagine what he could do with better funding. C'mon CCP, give that guy a raise, and a free copy of Xi Jinping Thought!

Influence of Israel over Russia is greatly exaggerated or even directly a fantasy. Nobody in Russia fool themselves with Israel, they know that is a US outlet.
To start with is laughable that a small country will influence politics of a great power.
Russia didn’t care very much about Israel when helping Siria.
And about Armenia, there are more Armenians living in Russia than in Armenia. Russians historically cared for Armenians. And they supported Armenia strongly in the past against Azerbaiyan.
But with CIA puppet pashinyan in the power Russia is obviously not going to expend its soldiers lifes, resources and money in helping them.

You and I thought of this same YouTuber @Sardaukar20 I hope this dude isn't imprisoned and his family received unfair and harsh attention from the government and Indians. I have watched a couple of his videos and I am hard pressed as to why he's being deemed as "CHINESE PROPAGANDIST." The man is trying to sow understanding and showcase how China has actually progressed these many decades and has visited places that's been propagandized as dystopian hell holes like Xinjiang, Xizang, and the relatively safety of many major Chinese cities contradicting the western/Indian hype.

It's quite sad to realize that a strong warmongering virtue exists in many people's and spits on the effort of people like this Indian individuals and others like him that just want to foster understanding, dialogue through his videos rather than bombs and bullets.

Lastly, India is showing too much insecurity for a supposed Supapowa. An immature, reckless, unprincipled country does not deserve a place as part of the UN permanent member. They'll only use that position for self-adulation, self-promotion, domination of its neighbors and even justifying the eventual invasion of Pakistan to absorb it in their grandiose vision of a greater Bharat-India

I think you should read a bit more on this topic in Arabic and dont confuse Russian Jews with State of Israel. Israel wanted to make sure that Germany knows that Zelensky is saved by Israel. and Syrian project is against Europe so why would Israel against Syrian government.
Armenia can have 100m residing in Russia. it wont matter much. when Arabs and Israelis are backing Azerbaijan.
Past is not future when underlying demographic religion changes.

You are free to believe that the support of Arabs and Israel to Azerbaiyan matters more than the support of a military superpower to Armenia.

The timeline clearly shows that Azerbaiyan didn’t dare to move a finger until Armenia got a pro Western government that Russia didn’t want to support.

If Armenia would have had a Lukashenko you can be assured that Naborno Karabaj would remain Armenian.

Russians simply got tired of Armenian government.

America’s lack of interest in Nagorno-Karabakh was first flagged in August 2017 when the US appointed its new representative to the Minsk Group, Andrew Schofer, but did not grant him ambassador status – putting him at a lower rank than his French and Russian counterparts.

While China hasn't engaged in mass imperialism like say anglos, we cannot say they could get where they are today without war.

I think Mao should have learnt to let others take the lead when it came to peacetime stuff. But when it came to war, he was damn good at it which is why he made the west seethe so much. When the KMT was in it's so callled prime, they lost like 10 enciclements battles to the weaker CPC. Only when he was away were the KMT victorious and even then couldn't finish the job. When Japan had taken then middle to northern parts of China, the CPC engaged in peoples war to make Japan unable to properly benefit from occupation which is important since Japan isn't resource rich. When civil war returned, the KMT were a huge betting favourite now with many warlords destroyed and the US backing. Even Stalin told Mao to step down but Mao was like "Nah, I'd win" and he did with like 1/3 the number of trained troops. China now was united but even so that didn't mean crap because the Qing supposedly was and foreigners kept taking land like it was nothing. Under Mao, China borders were now hands off from anyone no matter how strong. Korea, Tibet and Xinjiang. US, India and even Russia had to learn they had to respect China's borders. Mao also supported Vietnam to make sure France or the west couldn't come back. That's what Mao brought.

Deng is no fighter like Mao. But even he knew force had to be applied. People say China lost to Vietnam in 1979 but ignore the fact the fighting continued in the 80s and every major engagement was won by China. In the end Vietnam had to leave Cambodia and you have noticed when it comes to land borders, they don't dare argue with China. Nuff said. Also Deng humiliated Thatcher by saying hands off HK, it's no longer yours.

Point is, China is where it is today because even though it doesn't like fighting as a first option, it knows this world will expect you to have force to back it up no matter how noble you want to be. It sucks China couldn't always follow the path of no violence but this is reality. Does anyone thing China could get to it's current position if it just rolled over everytime someone else raised their fist?

Btw don't believe that BS that India wants no violence. How else did they get Goa or Sikkim? They just don't want to fight tougher enemies openly but will happily punch down on ones much weaker. They claim China is bad to it's Neighbours? Wait till you see what India is like to it's own and they aren't even guys like imperial Japan or crazed Russia.

I mean, just the other day Blinken was saying you're either at the table or on the menu, there's a country on the menu being cooked as we speak for challenging one of the P5.

I suspect under the veneer the world is not so different from the 20th century, and China wouldn't be where she is today without say the Korean War where she successfully took on three of the P5 simultaneously.

Another way to look at it is veto power for the P5 is a more civilized way for them to influence world geopolitics. If this process does not exist at the UN the P5 can still exercise this power - they will just convince you with bombs and missiles instead of a vote. Veto right isn't a power granted to them, it's a more civilized way for them to exercise the hard power that they already hold.

It's not a coincidence that I once saw a video of PRC 2019 national parade and when the PLARF formation marched through with "March of the Sweeping East Wind" playing by the band someone wittily commented: that song should be named "March of the Chinese Veto".
