China to Provide Lethal Support to Russia
February of 2022 Russia shocked the world when they began their invasion of Ukraine. This invasion and war has been a constant and unrelenting struggle for the people of Ukraine since it began up to present day.
Various nations have been trying to support Ukraine in any ways they can in order to restore the distorted peace upon which Russia has created. People often only hear about the support that is being sent to Ukraine but there are nations who have been supporting Russia as well.
The most notable nation that has been helping Russia take on their invasion of Ukraine is none other than China who are not allied nations but they have friendly relations.
China is the most notable at the moment because the United States military has recently shot down a Chinese spy balloon that was flying over American soil. Another reason is because China is one of the three major military powers in the world alongside the United States and Russia.
China has been supplying Russia with non lethal aid since the Russian invasion of Ukraine started but with reports coming from United States officials, China might try to provide Russia with lethal supplies.
The reports of China wanting to supply Russia with lethal force has sprung the United States military and government into action because of what could occur if China does decide to take a more lethal approach.
As it stands the United States government has provided Ukraine with weapons and ammo along with other nations such as Canada and Australia. The main reasoning for this is because the countries bordering Ukraine are a part of NATO and should something happen to Ukraine that would put NATO affiliated nations at risk next.
Ukraine is not a part of NATO because had Ukraine joined NATO back in 2010 when they had the chance the Russian government would have taken it as a sign of war since it would give the United States and all other NATO affiliated nations border access to Russia.
With an ongoing war directly involving one of the three world powers, people all over the globe are watching closely to see if China will make their move next in supplying lethal force to Russia.
During an exclusive interview on CNN United States Ambassador, Linda Thomas-Greenfield stated, “that would be a red line” in reference to China supplying lethal force to Russia. The Chinese government has stated that they want peace but peace can be obtained in numerous ways which is what has people scared.
If the three world powers in Russia, China and the United States were to all be involved in a lethal war it would cause an uproar throughout the world and have people nervous as to what can come next.
