China agreed with Russia: Ukraine has no right for NATO membership.
Nobody asked communist China anything because nobody cares.
Now they are smiling. When we stop all gas imports from RuSSia and pull out our production from China these clowns will have to go and fuck themselves. It’s only a matter of time until this will happen. BTW, please boycott the Bat Virus Olympics!
In another report about those two dick-tators, it says, “The parties also spoke out ‘against the abuse of democratic values’…”
Those two shit nuggets talking about democratic values are like two girls talking about having erections.
At nay rate, Xi, go and eat your rotten fish and rape your house pigs, and keep out of European affairs.
