    Doesn’t sound like the purpose is to please Russia. Especially this part:

    China is assessing the possibility of participating in peacekeeping forces in Ukraine, asking the EU whether its European partners support such an initiative.

    Asking the EU if it would support them participating in a peacekeeping mission which Russia has been very critical of kinda seems more like they’re trying to improve relations with Europe in the wake of strong anti-US sentiments.

      They’ve got Russia very dependent on them now. Better if they remain dependent. They could also probably get the NK soldiers to be withdrawn back to NK.
