They are all allies, there’s a reason why tiktok promoted trump all the time during the elections.

Im just saying that EU is also partly responsible for the russia-ukraine war, all those years buying cheap russian oil and gas has enabled russia to create a formidable army

Because there have not been reports of Indian working in factories in Russia or them being captured at the front lines. The involvement of india and everybody else (what ever that mean) is not comparable to that of China, but I'm not sure what your point is.

So does India and everybody else but you dont hear about them supporting russian war of aggression

They are also buying a lot of oil from Russia, China doesn't want to risk it's business in the west but ideologically it is aligned with Russia.

China is a decisive supporter of Russia in its war against Ukraine

Are they? As far as i know they are selling stuff to the russians, that is a bit different than being an active supporter. Yes, China is observing the conflict, but as far as i think only as a part of the whole self destruction of the west that is currently going on. Regarding the aggressive behavior i can only say that my relatives in Vietnam (some of them active in the military) are seemingly less worried about China than the current way of the US...

>Some chinese dudes are working in Russia.

This is a gross trivilaization. China is a decisive supporter of Russia in its war against Ukraine and a big threat to Europe and world. Beijing is closely watching Western democracies' reaction to Russia's aggression as they are seeking a war with Taiwan and other neighbours. Just watch China's increasingly aggressive behaviour against practically all its neighbours in Asia.

There are CCP sanctioned officers working in russia near the ukraine border. China has been a part of that invasion from the get go.

While I agree with your sentiment, the EU is waaaaay more dependent on the Chinese market than the US. This bears catastrophical economical risks. Also the EU would probably harms itself way more than China, so it is debatable if this would make sense at all.

We should hit russia where it hurts, economically.

If we "sanction" china (successfully), russia will just buy labour elsewhere while we create a recession for ourselves.

Yeah, why not? Let us shoot our self in the foot while we are still fucked by the US, just because some chinese dudes are working in Russia.

China should be sanctioned by the EU. This should’ve happened a while back, right now we are helping russia in ukraine by trading with china.
