    Maybe if Xi is removed we can get back to improving relationships again. I hope China is pragmatic enough to realize a war against Taiwan will 100% cost them more than they gain.
    IDK why they are behaving like such assholes about it currently, except Xi is an idiot about it, and want China recognized as a global power kind of like Russia wants.
    The difference being China is an actual global power, while Russia is nothing without their nukes.

    But I don’t see it as a trend following the Ukraine war, the situation with China has been uneasy for a while, and even if Russia conned Hamas into their attack on Israel, it is of little military significance, except of course for the Palestinians that suffer greatly from this.

    So I get what you mean, but I disagree it’s a trend.
