Its a mutual relationship. China knows that if Russia is weak it hurts their ability to fight western hegemony which will try to hold China down into just a manufacturing state economy for its own markets. As China emerges, and build out its own trade routes, it knows it must exercise power to show the western powers it means business. As far as USA being some great power that can protect trade routes, we have seen just a big of sham that is by Yemen. USA does not have the types and amount of naval ships to do so. It has a fleet built to fight countries far away, not protect trade routes which is much more different. China and even India have done a better job of building those out.

It’s the exact same thing that USA and Ukraine did to Russia - they set up rockets pointed to Russia for no reason - so Putin had to respond (which he did) but Putin is a meany
This is bullshite! Putin did not have to respond. Japan did not respond when North Korea pointed rockets at them. neither did South Korea. Putin points rockets at folks, also, and they don't "respond".
Plus, I want to point out that the rockets were aimed based on a reasonable expectation that Putin was going to invade AGAIN! Putin invaded Georgia; he invaded Crimea; and now he has invaded the rest of Ukraine. Do you see a pattern?

Can't happen, won't happen. China is in the midst of demographic collapse. Their population is going to be cut in half by 2050-ish. They are demographically incapable of consumption-led growth, their investment-led growth has burned out, and export-led growth is impossible without the U.S. and Europe. Face it.....China is almost done as a unified nation. They've only been able to unify and grow due to the artificial economic and security environment created by the U.S. Without that, it's going to revert back to the fractured mess that it's always been.

Lol, i understand youtube creators like to piggy back with these type of videos. But thats horse shite. Just overall, and very hypocritical when you try to use this metric compared to western. You'll be sitting there in 20 years and wondering why all that never materialized when the guy on youtube told you it was. In the end if any of these metrics China will find a solution to them, and already are. Just as the west will try to solve all of their many, many, many issues.

At any rate, if that's true, then why didn't they just do it? Why are they openly talking about shortages; in particular, with in regard to artillery? Not even a year ago, elites were openly talking about the supply chain problem:
Oh my. We believe government reports on their merit as wholly factual and true?
I'm sorry my guy.
