- Several Chinese citizens denied entry on July 29, embassy says
- Embassy demands that Russia provide ‘satisfactory answer’
China’s embassy in Moscow blasted what it called a “brutal” handling by Russian authorities of a denial of entry to the country by several Chinese citizens.
“Russia’s brutal and excessive law-enforcement activities in this incident have seriously violated the legitimate rights and interests of the Chinese citizens,” the embassy said in a post Friday on WeChat, the popular Chinese social-media outlet.
Sounds like that “friendship without limits” might not be as friendly or unlimited as previously suggested.

The tension is forming,

Denying Chinese citizens entry into Russia is “brutal” and “excessive” but bombing schools and hospitals is OK. Just China things.
China is a selfish country for the most part
If they let someone out, they’ve meant that!
“that’s just barbarian things”
“WHAT??? THEY DIDN’T LET US IN???”
Some Leopards Eating Faces material here.
Russia is too slow to realise it’s becoming China’s bitch.
China doesn’t want it to be weak, tho.
A country without an economy to backup its war goals will always be weak. I couldn’t dream to know what China hopes to achieve by playing both sides. I’m guessing they have multiple goals. Goals such as the feasibility of a Taiwan invasion or perhaps to pick at the corpse of a rotting Russia.
It’s all possible, but I feel like Russia’s actions and results aren’t what they liked. They themselves has a monicker ‘paper tiger’, and their ally being disabled by their own corruption sets a ground to question if China even a power to respect on the world stage. A second-hand humiliation, and I don’t think it can be outweighted by spoils they can get from Russia now. China seems to care about these things.
That’s a very good point. Second-hand embarrassment hadn’t crossed my mind. Perhaps they might be trying to decrease that risk by pretending to be arbiters. Though indeed that can only be propaganda for their own citizens and closest allies because nobody else is buying that bs. But nothing new there.
