Ian Bremmer: China Is Wary of Supporting Russia
Share
Russia’s war in Ukraine has thrown China into the global spotlight for some troubling reasons — and at a very bad time for Xi Jinping. What’s on his mind now?
Former Finnish PM Alexander Stubb tells Ian Bremmer that Xi is likely worried more about domestic stuff like zero COVID, his own political future, and perhaps turning inward on the economy.

He also sees China as a lot more dependent on Europe or the US than it is on Russia.
