US officials said that China provided more than 70% of the $900m (£723m) in machine tools – probably used to build ballistic missiles – imported in the last quarter of 2023 by Russia.
They also said that 90% of Russia’s microelectronics imports – used to produce missiles, tanks and aircraft – came from China last year.
So China gets to make money while Russia does all the dirty work, with both Russia and the West falling into economic peril.
Win-win for the Chinese.
I mean, it’s the same thing with the West giving weapons to Ukraine.
Somebodies getting rich off of that, it’s just not any of us.
