Well, we can pray.

My read on China is they can choose whether to care or not. If partnering with Russia remains in their interest for china it’s a non matter. One advantage of a being a one party president for life government is they can see and take the long view

Ukrainian forces now seem to control half or more of Stepnohirsk, with Russian forces retreating into the southern urban part of the town.

Recapturing Stepnohirsk would be a significant tactical victory, with larger strategic possibilities for a larger southward offensive. Heavier Russian reinforcements are arriving in that area but have so far not been effective.
