A community for discussing events around the World
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

Li noted the incursion and criticized Western support for Ukraine. “All sides are worried that the West continues to relax conditions for Ukraine to strike the Russian territory with aided weapons,” Li said. “And recent developments on the battlefield confirmed these kind of worries.”
Meanwhile you’re supporting the fucking invaders you daft cunt.
Politicians are such utter scum.
No, Li is right.
We should never support these kinds of countries, we should just let them be invaded.
Just like we should have let Germany do whatever they wanted to the Soviet Union by not supplying them with unlimited weapons, and we should have watched Imperial Japan have their fun with China.
How dare we interfere to escalate the situation!!!
There have not been any consequences for striking deep into Russia besides the usual volley of missiles that's shrugged off and a strongly worded letter that's just put on the "Putin's bluff" pile. Li needs to get better arguments to convince anyone.
The negotiations and dialogue should be "pack up your shit and go home russia".
It’s just a draft of the one they plan to use in a few years on Taiwan.
Why TF is China talking to Brazil, Indonesia, and SA about Russia’s invasion of Ukraine??
Have they, like, tried talking to Russia?
They are trying to flex their BRICS muscles and make themselves look like the new NATO.
Except the I in BRICS is India not Indonesia.
Tomato, potato.
Nightshade
...no expansion of the battlefield...
Funny how China emphasizes this after Russia started to lose land to Ukraine. It's not like they've been pushing this very hard with Russia for the last two years.
Li noted the incursion and criticized Western support for Ukraine. “All sides are worried that the West continues to relax conditions for Ukraine to strike the Russian territory with aided weapons,” Li said. “And recent developments on the battlefield confirmed these kind of worries"
Funny how Li have failed to conclude that China could have put an end to Russia raping and murdering civilian men, women and children 2 years ago by just not continue to supply Russia the parts needed to manufacture Russian weapons.
But they didn't.
China, you're drunk. Go home.
China is worried that the shit weapons they have will be basically useless against Taiwan if they try to invade and we supply Taiwan with western weapons. They want to be able to take over Taiwan in a day or two, but that wouldn't be possible if we supplied them with Western arms.
No, Xi is a brilliant mind at domestic party politics, but at geopolitics he's an imbecile.
He didn't understand that his navy was 10-15 years away from hoping to take Taiwan in 2022, and that was assuming the USN took a long vacation without checking their email.
His hope was that after Afghanistan, if Russia took Ukraine quickly the west would cower in fear and go full appeasement, basically giving Taiwan on a platter.
He might have been right if Big Daddy Z hadn't refused that ride.
Is this plan the 'let's let Russia have all the things it's stolen' plan?
Yeah, with a side of 'Taiwan has always been part of China' as always.
These guys only have one song and play it on repeat.
Li noted the incursion and criticized Western support for Ukraine. “All sides are worried that the West continues to relax conditions for Ukraine to strike the Russian territory with aided weapons,” Li said. “And recent developments on the battlefield confirmed these kind of worries.”
Xi, where is your concern for russia striking Ukrainian territory?
It's right next to his concern for China striking Taiwan and robbing Hong Kongers of all their rights.
This article is trash. It's just reporting what someone said with zero context around that statement.
What is China's and Brazil's peace plan? How is it different than the West's plan to do jack shit after Russia invaded Crimea? Let's start answering some basic questions before we run to press.
So... what's their peace plan?
Ukraine change their name to Kyiv Oblast.
Kiev Oblast *
You're right, but even reading that boils my blood.
The only acceptable peace plan is ruzzia getting the fuck out of Ukraine (by that I mean Crimea too) and using their funds to completely rebuild Ukraine. I don't give a shit if their economy collapses or they starve to death because of it, they destroy it, they repair it.
Ah china, the ol ‘No limits to our friendship with Russia’ trying to act like a neutral party lol
