  1. Ukraine Asks USA and NATO For Military Aid, which is OK.
    Russia Asks China For Military Aid, which is not OK.

  2. Russia just trying to drag china in this mess they created.

  3. STOP Genocide of Ukrainian civilians in Mariupol, Ukraine!

    Shame on China! crazed war criminal Putin regime is bombing civilians in Mariupol, Ukraine

    Russian army is committing Genocide in Mariupol

    crazed Putin is as evil as Hitler. Can world stop these merciless & beyond barbarian acts against women & children?

  4. Didn’t know Washingtons Allie’s were that compromised, OMG!

  5. ✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️

  6. Once China will join Putin's War… goodbye ASIA stability.. escalation of Putin's will be dangerous for Humanity.#matterofchoice

  7. This is the perfect chance for China to payback England for the Opium they owed. They should take the Virgin Islands. 😄

  8. it would be a huge mistake for China to do anything that would look like helping Russia. Putin knows this would help him immensely and would help China not at all. In fact China would irreversible be linked with Russia and this illegitimate attack on a neighbor, a brother. Sun Tzu have any bits of wisdom for the masses?

  9. china is not stupid using it's resources for a country that is not beneficial for them and beneficial for others….they are saving everything for taiwan 😛…. this is how chinese thinks…..everything revolves around money.

  10. American companies like Walmart, Apple and Amazon made China a SUPERPOWER. I guess Lenin was right when he said that capitalists will sell us the rope that we will use to hang them

  11. Russia will use Chinese yuan from its foreign exchange reserves after Western sanctions blocked Moscow's access to the U.S. dollars and euros in the reserves, Finance Minister Anton Siluanov said on Monday.
    This means that Russia was bought by China.
    Russia has become a region of RMB and will now speak Putonghua and eat with chopsticks.
    Before the Russians, ruled by the Mongol Empire.
    That's why Russia is used to being under Asian control.

  12. The USA has biological laboratories and chemical weapons in Ukraine. Why?

  13. Russia did not use in its special operations in Ukraine any of its advanced weapons.

  14. The request is Fake news by the USA to escalate the war and benefit from the current situation by retarding the Chinese economy.

  15. China is not stupid to involve in this war.

  16. HOAX ‼️

    China rejects reports has russia asked for military aid for ukraine

    Telegraph 👉 https://youtu.be/RFt0x2RKpks

  17. The West is the most powerful force on the planet, don't upset them!

  18. do not buy made in china!!

  19. The Chinese have more to gain from Russia losing than Russia winning. India is a Russian client state and the majority of its weapons come from Russia. The Indians aren't anywhere near self-sufficient in arms production and if the supply of weapons from Russia declines that benefits China. India also receives undervalued development loans from the Russians so India's ability to build its infrastructure would become much more expensive without Russian loans and would become an economic drain. If Russia loses and has another revolution it's possible some regions may opt for independence so China could gain buffer/client states on its borders. Lastly, China has become largely self-sufficient in arms production. Although many of their weapons are Russian designs they are built in China and without Russian arms, Chinese arms manufacturers would benefit from a diminished Russian presence in the arms market.

  20. "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because they have not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son. This is the verdict: Light has come into the world, but people loved darkness instead of light because their deeds were evil. Everyone who does evil hates the light, and will not come into the light for fear that their deeds will be exposed." John 3:16-20

    check out my testimony video!

  21. Well if the West can support and help China without sending troops in. Why can't China support their Allie Russia?

  22. WW1 caused by one man, WW2 caused by one man, WW3 may be caused by one man.

  23. iF China helps putin-Hitler sanction China too. We American do not need China goods, we can make our own. Clinton has our industry go to China so we can make our own.

  24. That's old news. They are all in on it ,NATO takes land ,Russia had enough bs ,he takes care of his people,

  25. They West hides lots of facts, they brain wash us , they deceive us. Russia has a good reason to attack Ukraine. USA AND EUROPE ARE HYPOCRITS AND LIERS!

  26. That’s the chick from the Snapchat news videos lol

  27. Well, that's all we need to know! If the United States has reason to believe, then that's the way it is! Go Ukraine 🇺🇬. You guys got this one about wrapped up!

  28. Ukranians is awesome nation and unfortunate on the other side and it’s a battle ground for Russian and Westren powers . Contractors are recruiting people from both sides for this new fight . Ukranians are suffering and paying price with their lives . #standwithUkraine

  29. Yahh my team starts sending 200,000 suicide drones, unspecified numbers of UAV, AI robot tanks etc on the way now.

  30. Didn’t the US and UK say that there were WMD in Iraq?

  31. 🚨Always Remember : We read, hear from the Professional Liars.. Not from news reporters

  32. 🚨Always Remember : We read, hear from the Professional Liars.. Not from news reporters

  33. It is Fake News! China and Russia already deny this :
    https://youtu.be/fJMpfUO_f-g

  34. lol they need aid. That means they are failing.

  35. US is busted…
    Biological weapons lab in Ukraine uncovered by the Russians. Panic in the US camp 🤣.. Propaganda team is working hard to counter the truth 😂😂😂

  36. Why is everyone surprised 😮.. good to say Russia military is not to strong 🤔

  37. I am against the war, but Biden is showing a lot of weakness, can you Imagine agreeing on every Putin demand and publicly saying he is running away because of the fear of starting a ww3, Putin will work on that fear and get whatever he wants. and mark my words once Ukraine is taken those sanctions will be worthless because Russia will retaliate by cutting of the Gas it sells to Europe and Europe will never stand a price increase on fuel and loosing out 50% of its gas supplier even for a week, to name a few before protests breaks out then it starts lifting sanctions against Russia.
    What Biden should be saying is I have the nukes and I will not hesitate to wipe out Russia on the world map, then Putin will think twice like (can he really do it) this is why they use to fear Trump they thought he was a mad man and can do something stupid hence they used to think twice before doing or saying anything. But right now Biden is like we are going to give fighter jets to Ukraine, then Putin is like I don’t want that if you do it I will not be happy hence I will launch nukes then Biden crosses that off the list. Ukraine is a sovereign state it can get military support from any country. And Putin will never do anything
    1. Putin can never launch nukes it uses them to threaten Biden
    2. Putin can never go to war with nato, he knows it will be the end of his regime.
    3. He also has issues at home, he does not want to add more that he can’t be able to manage.

  38. LOL ITS WAS CONFIRMED A LIE

  39. Russia has warned NATO not to interfere,however, they are seeking help from China which may complicate it's warning to the west.USA and NATO allies will be involved.

  40. You just slit your own throat, Vlad.
    China is pragmatic and will extract a HUGE price from Russia, regardless of their answer to Vlad's request.
    How weak does Vlad look? Begging for help after two weeks?
    This moron (Vlad) has made huge strategic errors and now he's begging Big Brother China for help. How does he come out of this? I got news for you Vlad, China isn't going to play games with you. Can you say give all Russian oil to China for free?

  41. Lol us has reason to believe, but no evidence? If Russia truly wanted to take over Ukraine it would of already done so. This is just US way to blame China for some upcoming rising prices, probably like clothing and house appliances and other crap. Gas has been going up months after Biden went into office trump called it and said "Biden will raise gas prices"

  42. He's a compulsive gambler looking for someone to mooch from.

  43. Oh now it’s reason to believe fake news US propaganda
