There are many things China can learn being a bystander (kind of):

1. what countries are hardcore US allies even this war is nothing to do with them
2. what sanctions are from US and its allies
3. military operations on both sides
4. worldwide reactions

I think China should give Putin a big medal and well prepared. Let's wait for the inevitable and compare notes.

I'm now even more convinced NATO will do nothing if China reunifies Taiwan by force.

They are sitting by and doing nothing while a 1 trillion power takes over a 600,000km2 sovereign country directly bordering EU and NATO, 250km away from Warsaw. No way in hell they fight a 20 trillion superpower for an unrecognised 30,000km2 island halfway across the world.

The Russian offensive has stalled. They failed to seize the Kiev airport, and they failed to gain air superiority. If this goes on Putin might be overthrown.

You forgot the "/S"

They also said at the beginning of COVID that Xi would face a CCP firing squad

Would make more sense to close the port if they wanted to stop trade.

Could be Ukrainians doing this. Or maybe Russia just have terrible IFF.

[2] more cargo ships have been reportedly struck by Russian anti-ship missiles this afternoon, one belonging to Moldova and the other Japan. This brings the total to four since the conflict started.

Namura Queen is close to shore but Millennial Spirit is further away. Accidental?

Yep. EU didn't even lift its finger to help a country next door which is "white".

0 chance they will do anything for Taiwan. China just needs to get 10000 nuclear warheads to threaten them and then take over Taiwan

Many western [social]media reports/comments makes it looks like Russia is losing. But there seems to be more videos/pics of Ukrane losses.

Three of the ships attacked by Russians have belonged to NATO country. With the other being Japanese; close ally’s with the Americans.

Theres an RQ4 drone over the Black Sea right now.

If China is kicked out SWIFT system, they will build their own (they probably already have one), just like what they did with the international space station program. More members will join Chinese one because they want a backup. This shows the stupidity of the west.

Ukraine is definitely losing, however they’re inflicting heavier than expected losses on the Russians; inevitably the Russians will prevail and for some reason aren’t committed to a full on assault yet, definitely holding restraint.
