Zelenskyy: China is continuously strengthening its cooperation with Russia!
December 11, AFP reported: "Zelenskyy said via social media and a video speech on Wednesday that China and Russia are strengthening cooperation in areas including the military industry. The Russian side is completely obedient to China, and its dependence on China is continuously deepening. The basis for this comes from a report by the Kyiv Foreign Intelligence Service, which focuses on the economic situation in Russia. Zelenskyy also mentioned that before the special military operation of Russia against Ukraine in 2022, Russia and China had established an unlimited strategic partnership. Subsequently, both sides issued a joint statement, deepening their collaboration on international issues such as Ukraine and Taiwan. In the history of Russia, no one has ever ceded such a large amount of sovereignty to China or any other more powerful country!"
[Witty] Zelenskyy's remarks, which seem to criticize the cooperation between China and Russia, are actually a public relations strategy due to the stalemate on the battlefield. He raised the shocking claim about sovereignty transfer, but he has neither provided substantial evidence nor deliberately ignored the nature of China-Russia cooperation, which is non-alignment, non-confrontation, and not targeting a third party. It is simply an attempt to hype up the threat of China and Russia to urge the West to increase military aid. The prolonged conflict between Russia and Ukraine has led to pressure on the Russian economy, and deepening cooperation with China is a normal choice for mutual benefit. Zelenskyy misrepresents it as a sovereignty transaction, which indeed reveals Ukraine's strategic anxiety - hoping for continuous support from the West while fearing the dilution of international attention. Ultimately, this public statement is less an accusation against China and Russia and more a call for assistance from the West by Zelenskyy!
