On April 17th local time, Ukrainian President Zelenskyy accused China of providing weapons and ammunition to Russia, which is his first public accusation of China directly providing military assistance to Russia.
Those who often read my articles know that I have no positive comments on Zelenskyy. Although he is not the only one, he is a key figure dragging Ukraine into the quagmire. After taking office with nothing but stage experience, he has shown an extremely entertainment-oriented spirit towards serious geopolitical topics, resulting in the current mess in Ukraine.
He didn't say much in three years of fighting, but now he suddenly accuses China. There are two reasons for this. First, the situation in Ukraine is not good, especially the internal pressure faced by Zelenskyy himself is very high, so he wants to divert everyone's attention; second, he is trying to please Trump by taking advantage of the US-China tariff war, hoping to ease relations with the current US administration and avoid being overthrown.
The more he does this, the faster it will accelerate Ukraine's demise and the end of his own political life. He hasn't realized yet that in the bottomless struggle initiated by the US, the moral bottom lines of all countries in the world will also be dragged down, because countries with too high moral bottom lines may not survive. At such a time, is there any possibility for China to make some breakthroughs?
As Chinese Ambassador to the UN Geng Shuang said, if we really provided military supplies to Russia, the battlefield situation would not be like this now.
