@Dimi Ukraine could retaliate, geopolitically.

@Dimi @McFaul Is anyone surprised? Of course, China is doing this. Shi & Putin have a bromance.

@Dimi @RALee85 Why aren’t we sanctioning China?

@Dimi India would sell these too if they could. Want to stop it? Threaten sanctions.

@Dimi Criminals looking after each other

@Dimi @McFaul Decoupling Western economies from Chinese manufacturing is essential for the future of the free world. We are effectively paying for the expansion of the Chinese and Russian militaries.

@Dimi This is something which is close to impossible to stop, as the parts in question will be dual use (civilian, but usable in military hardware), and will be mostly provided by independent suppliers. It's the same as saying DJI supplies drones to Ukraine.

@Dimi And indeed, similar Chinese companies will be selling similar goods to Ukraine and other third parties which supply Ukraine.

@Dimi The Ukraine GUR will find these places......and just as the workforce is to start the day,,,,,

@Dimi The classified part: after the EU sacrificing its economy on behalf of the US with its Russia sanctions, the US is now looking for an excuse for it to do the same with China so that the EU will become even more subservient and dependent upon the US and even poorer.

@Dimi The Biden Administration knows full-well which Chinese entities are sending Russia war fighting equipment. As if we all didn’t already know about Xi and Putin’s ‘limitless partnership’…our feckless leaders are too meek to push the ‘hard button’ and firmly sanction China. #China

@Dimi Duh

@Dimi So everything that NATO member Turkey is also doing?

@Dimi Minor gripe: the EU isn't mentioned once in the article.

@Dimi @McFaul Let’s completely stop European countries Buying from China outrageous.

@Dimi Yet people still use iPhones made in China.

@Dimi @RALee85 Sino-US proxy war in 10, 9, 8

@Dimi @ChristopherJM Ignore it when China pretends to be a neutral party.

@Dimi while the US isn’t sending Ukraine anything
