...
XI (PRChina) was more careful, saying that --> ... “In the face of changes in the world, times and history, PRChina is willing to work with Russia to reflect the responsibility of a major country, play a leading role and inject stability into a troubled and interconnected world.”

At the same time, relations with the USA , Australia and much of Europe have deteriorated over PRChina’s human rights record, its often abrasive diplomacy, assertions of sovereignty in the South China Sea and threats to attack TAIWAN. Along with COVID-19 travel concerns, all those factors have contributed to Xi’s apparent reluctance to travel overseas for state visits and international gatherings.

N.Korea may send workers to Russian-occupied east Ukraine ; 2022.09.01
Observation -->
N.KOREA + RUSSIA = Axis of Slave Drivers
Seems as if N.Korea citizens will be as SLAVE LABOR in UKRAINE for PUTIN (Russia).
And the MONEY PROFIT from that , flows to KIM JONG UN (N.Korea)
and his Gangster Tyrants ... And to PUTIN (Russia) and his Gangster Tyrants ...
I suppose NOT starving in N.Korea has some attraction.
Added later --> *Thanks* for the REACT responses that I got them here.
