“a Chinese scholar said Donald Trump's desire to reengage with Vladimir Putin to bring Russia in from the cold is a fantastic opportunity for China because all this nagging we've had for three years from the Europeans about being friends with Russia goes away...Chinese officials and scholars and business leaders...could end up as winners from the Ukraine war invited to rebuild Ukraine”
