Ukraine Boxing Ears of Russian Bear Around Occupied Crimea
At least 36 ships, 32 of them oil tankers have been sent to the bottom of the Sea of Azmov in the last 48 hours, in response to which...

"China ... directly responded in an ultimatum-like form — that there can be no thought whatsoever of using nuclear weapons.”
Zelensky said that NATO leaders told him this.
Now, at first blush, you think "this is a good thing", right? China talking down Putin to prevent nuclear war in Europe. That's good. But think, how would this have come up?
Did Xi just call up Putin out of the blue and say "Vladimir, there can be no thought whatsoever of using nuclear weapons"?
Was Xi watching 🦊 when some Commie commentator recommended Nukraine?

It seems more likely to one idiot blogger that Putin would have run this one up the flag pole with his minders in Beijing. That was what Poot-Poot's predecessors did with us when said Soviet predecessors wanted to nuke "those yellow bastards" in 1969. "'Murican frenemies, what you think we nuke China? Goot, nyet?" "NYET NYET NYET YOU CRAZY ROOSKIS!", we responded.
It seems to me the "thought" was first in Putin's mind, not in Xi's. That not so goot.
