The fruits of western diplomacy.Russia has suspended her participation in the START-3 nuclear arms reduction treaty.
Looks like the US-Russia nuclear arms race has restarted. Sooner or later, China will be dragged into one, even if she has no such intention to be involved. There exists no other choice for China.

That presents the West with a choice to either condemn Taiwanese separatism or accept Chinese weapons sales to Russia. As it's clear that they'll pick Taiwan, China might be able to spin it as giving an excuse to supply Russia.So I believe the talks of creating a peace draft is just laying the most basic groundwork, finding points of commonality between the 2 sides. Political theater. And then later when people are actually exhausted enough to make compromises, more concrete terms will come.
