Basically, the Imperium issued orders to China, and China's response is 'you're not the boss of me'

So China talks out of one side of their mouth to us, and other side to Russia. Nothing has changed.

It's all about money, money, money for the Chinese. No morals, no humanity . . . just money, money, money.

Sanctions work, folks!

You might want to assault and invade your peaceful neighbor/s, but don't expect to go back to business as usual with people and conduct regular business as before anymore. That's what China's worrying about.

China also said they weren’t responsible for creating the COVID virus as well or that it even originated from their country so, go figure….

Good on China not to be bullied by US/NATO. Unlike our spineless government.

China is another authoritarian imperialist casting greedy eyes on its neighbours so it supports other greedy authoritarian imperialists to serve its own ends but it needs to sell its cheap crap to the west so it tries to distract and obfuscate its actions and ends up looking utterly two faced in the process.

China is sending aid to Russia, but not sending anything to Ukraine. How…Chinese.

. Unlike our spineless government.

Russia should be Included in a list of spineless governments. Aerial bombings of hospitals and sanctuaries where innocent children were sheltered is about as spineless as can be, and is consistent with what Russian forces have done in Syria. And threatening to go nuke to achieve Putin's means, is also cowardly especially while your idol Putin hides in his heavily fortified shelter. I thought his propagandists claimed he's a martial arts he-man, but he's shown he's just another ex-Stasi, ex-KGB thug who stays in the rear with the gear, and lets others fight his fights for him. But it could be the Russian leader is so weak because he really is sick. How pitiable. Crocodile tears for the weak spineless one, and for his true believing cultists.

China is sending aid to Russia,

China needs Russian resources to maintain the armies of the new Imperium. Meet the new imperium, worse than the last ones, and looking like it'll be even more evil than any that's ever been. Far right extremists and your authoritarian favoring ilk, you'll have to live with it, too. Or have you been given word you'll get special rewards for your help in trying to undermine democracies.By the way, How did Putin's word that he wasn't going to invade Ukraine turn out. The credibility of most pro-authoritarians has long been shown to be non-existent.

China is playing the long game. It can play all it wants but if found out latter that they assisted Russia in this war going against any sanctions it will pay. In the end Russia will not go unpunished and will have pay a the for financial destruction and crimes. Do you think other states want to to share this financial burden for a decade or more. Some are coming to there senses and are condoning Russia actions and other will soon separate themselves also.

Do we really trust China as to what they say China is sending to Russia?

What's there to not hate about the PRC?

It's all about money, money, money for the Chinese...

So does Latin America, most of other Asian countries especially the biggest democracy country and many Africans. It is a shame that the majority of globe populations didn't condemn and sanction Russia. The great America and his allies should sanction them all.

The specific choice of rhetoric utilized in this Global Times article is extremely significant.

Last year, several “anonymous US officials” have told the media either “the Chinese military has three times rejected requests for calls from the US defense secretary,” “researchers at the Wuhan Institute of Virology became sick and sought hospital care before COVID-19 outbreak disclosed,” or “China has no intention of engaging in serious or substantive talks with the US.” All of these have later been proven to be utter disinformation, which only serves as “cannonballs” for attacking China.

When looking back at his past as CIA director, former US secretary of state Mike Pompeo once said publicly, “We lied, we cheated, we stole. We had entire training courses.” So how does the US lie and deceive people? It is easier for Washington and the US media to quote “anonymous officials” to spread lies as shocking “exclusive news.” The cooperation between US propaganda machines and diplomatic and intelligence services has greatly increased the deceptiveness of those lies. Moreover, the US’ alliance system and hegemony in public opinion can make sure that even though Washington is a habitual liar, it can obtain a certain amount of assentation and support. This has become the bases for the US to play politics as it wants.

While US media maliciously falsifies the truth, Washington deliberately pretends to know nothing. These two to some extent have even formed an integral production, supply and distribution chain of fake news. This is unprofessional, immoral, and irresponsible, and will only further discredit the US in front of the world. As some comments pointed out, whenever people see the news reports that include sentences like “anonymous officials revealed…” and “US intelligence agencies claimed…,” they should in their minds replace everything in those sentences with “They may be lying.”

Therefore, unsurprisingly, as Washington is changing its foreign strategy to “great power competition,” it will use its hegemony in public opinion and media to spread false information and launch a “public opinion warfare.” Of course, we can also be sure that such a “double act” will sooner or later fail to work as the deficit in the US’ account of credibility rises.

Right now, when the military conflict in Ukraine is getting increasingly serious under Washington’s provocation, and when the energy and refugee crises become more and more severe in Europe, the US’ smear campaign will only unmask it as the initiator. More and more people will see the true face of the US – an “empire of lies.”

The Chinese may not believe in Satan or the spiritual side of Babelism, but they are nevertheless opposed to the forces of globalist satanry for their own materialistic and nationalistic reasons.

Ego, Global Times, mouthpiece of the CCP. Hardly a reliable source of unbiased even handed reporting to reference.

“Spiritual side of Babelism” “global satanry”? What are you talking about, not sure what mushrooms you have been eating but you need to be more careful in future.

China's ambassador to the U.S. said Sunday his country was not sending weapons to Russia for use in Ukraine,

But he did not say they were not sending weapons to Russia to free up more Russian weapons for use in Ukraine. Diplomats are a deceptive bunch. Trust nothing, question everything.

Weasel words. Typical.

The trains aren't moving at this instant. An hour from now, who knows?
