This is a sign that China is continuing to make the wrong choices with regard to this war. That does not mean they cannot be of help ending it. It does not bode well however for their aspirations to lead on the international stage.

At this point it should become clear to all nations that this is not a traditional, Cold War style conflict in which there are 2 points of view. This is not geopolitical business as usual. This is binary. Right vs. wrong. There's no justification for what Russia has done.
The world has spoken with remarkable clarity and near unanimity on this. Every Russian explanation for their actions has been either a lie or an outrageous lie. Every Russian promise has been broken. Russia has consistently violated international laws and the rules of warfare.
And Ukraine did nothing to provoke this and has conducted themselves only with bravery throughout, even as the women and children of that country become cannon fodder for Putin's twisted mission to recreate a Tsarist vision of what a Russian empire should look like.
Countries (and companies) are either on the right side of this or the wrong side and seeking to remain neutral is being on the wrong side. There is too much at stake here. The moral choice is too clearcut.
