    In case you weren’t aware, Global Times is part of the Chinese state media and what it publishes is effectively the official position of the government. You can also read the official statement from China on US hegemony, and the proxy war in Ukraine:

    Alex Lo, a South China Morning Post columnist, pointed out that the United States has rarely distinguished between diplomacy and war since its founding. It overthrew democratically elected governments in many developing countries in the 20th century and immediately replaced them with pro-American puppet regimes. Today, in Ukraine, Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, Syria, Pakistan and Yemen, the United States is repeating its old tactics of waging proxy, low-intensity, and drone wars.

    The only naive person here is the one who thinks that this is the one time that NATO is on the right side of history and that the world is aligned with NATO in this war.

      Again, where does this mention China discussing to send lethal aid to Russia? That is clearly not something China wants to discuss openly as it is at best a plan B. Stop trying to change the topic just because you realized you naively fell into the trap of NATO propaganda.

        The discussion was about China, and global south in general, clearly supporting Russia in this war. The fact that China is likely to supply weapons to Russia as claimed by US, is just one example to underscore China’s support, not the topic of the discussion. The document I linked is from the official Chinese government site and it plainly states that the war in Ukraine is a proxy war by the US. But you keep on trying to pretend that China isn’t aligned with Russia here.

        Also, absolutely hilarious that an anarchist who is supporting the war where thousands of people are dying is accusing others of falling into NATO propaganda trap. Zero self awareness on display. The fact that you genuinely think that countries outside the west support NATO in this conflict is truly the height of comedy.
