1. China certainly does not care about Ukraine, except for the chance to rebuild it and make big $$$$.

And it doesn't really care about Russia either.

China is helping Russia with the war as much as it can without being sanctioned itself.
Some of its help is being kept secret, so they think.

But this is only because Russia is an autocratic ally and China cannot achieve its dream of being
a global superpower without Russia.

And whatever happens with Ukraine has strong implications for China's capture of Taiwan.
