China gains economic and military advantages from Russia's protracted war against Ukraine, so, in the opinion of political scientist Valeriy Klochek, Beijing is currently not interested in a rapid cessation of hostilities. At the same time, the analyst believes that a complete Russian victory also does not align with the interests of the Chinese leadership.
This is written by 24 Channel with a link to the comment by Valeriy Klochek, head of the Center for Public Analytics “Vezha.”
According to the political scientist, the war in Ukraine is one of the factors in the broader confrontation between the United States and China. Both states seek to strengthen their positions in the world, and their relations constantly change depending on economic and security interests.
That is why Klokhchok does not expect that a meeting between U.S. President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping will lead to fundamental changes in negotiations on stopping the Russia-Ukraine war.
According to the analyst, ending hostilities in Ukraine is not an independent strategic goal of Washington in its relations with Beijing. He views this issue as one component of the competition between the two countries.
According to Klotchko, China is gradually expanding its influence on the Russian economy. Protracted war creates opportunities for Beijing to gain access to Russia's resources and strengthen its presence in its markets.
The political scientist also drew attention to the military-technical aspect. According to him, Chinese manufacturers are using combat experience to improve their own developments.
In particular, Klochek noted that Chinese companies are already producing jet engines for strike drones and actively selling components for them.
On this basis, the analyst concluded that the current scale of the war does not create an urgent need for the Chinese leadership to push for its end. However, in his assessment, Beijing is likewise not interested in Russia's victory.
Klochek also paid attention to the negotiations between Trump and Xi. He considers them important for the relations between the two states, but does not expect that the meeting itself will change the positions of the parties regarding the settlement of the war in Ukraine.
24 In September Xi Jinping visited Washington for the first time in 11 years. Among the issues that analysts expect will be discussed by the leaders of the United States and China are trade relations between the two countries and the situation around Taiwan.
