    The Spin

    Anti-China narrative

    By supporting Russia in its illegal invasion of Ukraine, China is damaging its ties with the West and will stand on the wrong side of history. China needs to reevaluate its position or risk one day facing the same sanctions and severing of ties that Russia has experienced.

    Pro-China narrative

    China's continuing relationship with Russia is reflective of both countries' desires for a fairer and more equitable world order, including on sovereignty and security, in contrast to a global hegemon dictating the rules of everything.
