I think recognition is just step one. The Russian Army still surrounds Ukraine on three sides. Next step in the playbook should be a false flag against Donbass, with massive actual casualties to the ethnic Russian population. Russia would then use that as an engineered Casus Belli against Ukraine and start an invasion.
That is what you think what China's principle is, I am afraid.
Examples include but not limited to: China recognized Bangladesh's independence from Pakistan, recently China recognized South Sudan's breakaway from Sudan.
China's decision is NOT based on some paper or referendum but on the fact on the ground as proof of separation being acceptable.
A bloody conflict can be a proof, such as Sudan. An absolute ethnic majority can be another one such as Crimea and Donbas. Failure of the government in keeping the country together can be also one, such as breakup of Yugoslavia.
But China can refuse and has refused to recognize breakaways such as Kosovo because Serbia is our friend even though Kosovo does fulfil some said conditions (war and ethnic).
One can only be "double standard" if one breaks ones stated principle. But China has never made such statement as you suggested.
China doesn't need to openly support Russia in liberating Ukraine from the US puppet regime. A Russian victory in Eastern Europe will be beneficial to China. Should I remind you about how the EU and America regularly Spit on China's face in the name of Democracy? Double standards is a norm in world politics since ancient times. You are clearly just using your supposed "opposition" to double standards as an excuse to push your Pro-American narratives. You claim to support China but at the same time also support China's enemies lol.
That's exactly the kind of foreign policy blob we want in the West. Delusional halfwits who are going to lead the US into total failure. But on the other hand, it's not like they have much choice - what other moves do they have left to play?
Edit: LOL, they're so pathetically transparent
Indeed, why is China being held to standards that the white caucasoid west has historically and concurrently failed to live up to?
Ever since the Opium Wars, the white west has proven that Cannons are the Final Argument of Kings, and as for the inevitable whining from the West: Vae Victus
I highly doubt a false flag operation will happen or is needed. I believe Ukraine will be the one who may set it off because they HAVE to react. If the Ukrainian leadership just shrugs and let the regions go unofficially or they don't do s**t and just talk, they will have internal strife, which can lead to an ultranationalist uprising. If they fight, they will fight against Russia. This is a lose lose situation for them. The only way Ukraine can win is that China to sanction Russia. The West's sanctions are clearly not enough.
