We already have dozens of military bases surrounding China. There's not much more to do since China is not currently attacking foreign soil.

There as no coup. Selensky won a free election against Poroshenko (you know the guy, who was after the maidan revolution). Just ask random Ukrainans.

No coup? Perhaps you'd be more comfortable with the verbiage "CIA-backed uprising/revolution" then?
Using technology to improve lives is one thing, but using technology to survive missile attacks is just another level. Sometime I ask myself, will humans ever stop wars once and forever.
Humans are naturally inclined towards war or conflict. It’s our fatal flaw.
Enjoy your freedoms: paid for in blood.

There was a peace deal before (Minsk agreement). Agreements with Russia are not worth the paper they're signed on. Any peace deal Putin is willing to sign is just to consolidate his gains and get more time to prepare for another attack.

This is not that much about US or Russia interests, but about Ukrainians and they are currently fighting the Russians for 2 years. Implying they have no choice or they are only manipulated seems more like propaganda (will let the reader decide for whom). Many east Europeans still have memories about what it meant to be under Russian influence and oh boy that was shitty... No need for propaganda there.
US and Russia made aggression wars, but while they imagine they are "world powers" they don't seem to have a great track record unless the population in that country does not firmly oppose (just the most obvious examples: Afghanistan - couple of times each, Vietnam, Ukraine)

> Western media tend to portrait Israel in a negative light Western media bend over backwards to report the official Israeli spin on events as often as possible and they still end up looking bad, mostly because people can get information from non-MSM sources as well. The problem with the Palestine conflict is that there are way more than just two sides involved. People keep overlooking Iran. And the Syria disaster.

They are. Check the Spratly islands. They may not be “certainly” owned by a specific country, but they’re definitely not China’s given the distance.

And how would you propose deterring them from doing this while also avoiding escalation?
Isn’t history showing that letting aggressors nibble away at norms and borders and letting them get away with it ‘to avoid escalation’ is just emboldening the aggressor? Peace in our time.
