I thought Russia and China are close allies
Congratulations on posting the dumbest thing I'll read all day, by some margin. NATO, the famously defensive alliance is not the aggressor. The invading nation, Russia, is the aggressor. The nation that built up heavy concentrations of troops on the Ukrainian border for months, then proceeded to advance into Ukraine is the aggressor. Russia, the nation shelling cities in Ukraine, is the aggressor.
Where on Earth do these accounts come from? Honestly................

Only when their political goals align. As hard as it is to believe but Russia is very xenophobic and racist towards non Russians [
] and historically speaking China has plenty of reasons not to trust Russia.

I think we all know the answer to that one.
You mean the parody of anthing that isnt sucking on the western teat is framed as a Russion bot or the other outlandish claims that seem to be pro Russia?

Assuming genuine the profile appears approx. correct for a Grigorovich-class as far as I can tell from the quality of the video.

I agree that it looks like it - surprised Ukraine aren't claiming it though or shouting more about it; is on a few news outlets now.

Claiming anyone but Russia is the aggressor in this situation is beyond parody.
BBC now reporting the frigate story.

I mean anyone who defends a country that recruits criminals from their jails to attack a sovereign nation and rape their children needs their head examining.
At least it’s exposed the bots and Russian sympathisers.
The reports that a US drone was near the warship that was attacked is interesting. I’m not saying the US attacked it, but their give a **** meter over Russia seems really low right now.

That would require some strategic, joined up thinking. We’re yet to see this.

There certainly could be some truth to the ship on fire.

Over 1.1m Russian soldiers lost their lives there. I don’t think even Putin is crazy enough to risk numbers anywhere near that.
