Why isn't China criticized for not condemming Russia?

What is China's position? It hasn't really been reported much in the US media. China wants to be a major player in the world community. It is the second largest economy in the world. Maybe China is ok with redrawing other countries' bounaries with military force like in the "good old days". Why does China get a free pass on all this? If they joined in on the economic and diplomatic pressure againt Russia it would go a long way toward resolving this peacefully and also preserving the legitimate sovereignty of Ukraine. Or are their thoughts more about Taiwan?

Am I just being a Karen again? Sorry.

US and Europe can't handle the two (Russia and China) at the same time, because that can back fire and hugely hurt their economy, and may trigger WW3.

@ABCDEF7 So our fate is to either stand up to tyranny and risk nuclear war, or let tyranny win time and again?

@irishmolly72 Don't see things with a western lens. The world knows who has been cruel and has used nuclear weapons on innocent civilians. They see West as tyranny. They have their own arguments which west is not ready to hear. Who is right and who is wrong would be a long debate.

@ABCDEF7 Better to "debate" than to wage war I suppose. Let's hope that's what happens.

@irishmolly72 Unfortunately some debates don't end with conclusions.

@ABCDEF7 What's the alternative?

@irishmolly72 It's not that simple. Either every country/community becomes interdependent on each other, which doesn't seems easily possible. The other solution would be when the whole civilization starts to listen and seek the truth instead of concluding things based on their limited knowledge and established beliefs.
