It means nothing. They were already at it. Now they're publicly at it. Will China move personal into the Ukraine or just further equipment increasing production it was already manufacturing some towards and supplying. Now a lot more, with bigger potential.

The year will get more interesting, but it was due too anyway.

Is a big Russisn offensive due. It sets more of what happens next, if or what deals form as a result. Now further armed, isn't going anywhere except further in. Ukraine similar. Are they getting jets, tanks, and mid range missiles, and more air defense.

In any case it's back to the Cold War running hotter. Chinese involvement will see sanctions, and more trade interrupted globally. Then it gets riskier as another hotspot erupts.

But no surprise this being granted.
