China’s False Neutrality on Ukraine Masks a Dangerous Global Game

By National Security Desk | September 24, 2025

While China claims neutrality in the Ukraine conflict, its actions reveal a tacit alliance with Russia that threatens U.S. national security and global stability.

As the war in Ukraine drags beyond three years, Beijing insists it remains “objective and impartial,” but this claim collapses under scrutiny. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenski challenged China directly at the United Nations Security Council, highlighting that without Chinese support, Putin’s Russia would falter. Yet, despite such candid calls, China continues to play a dangerous double game—professing peace while enabling aggression.

How Can China Claim Neutrality When It Fuels Russia’s War Machine?

China’s official line is to promote peace and dialogue. But the reality tells a different story. From deepening economic ties to strategic partnerships with Moscow, China effectively props up Russia amid sanctions and international condemnation. This is not mere diplomacy; it is a calculated move that undermines America’s efforts to defend freedom and uphold international order.

Why should hardworking American families care? Because every dollar of Chinese-Russian cooperation weakens U.S. leverage on the global stage, emboldening aggression that jeopardizes not only European stability but also U.S. national security interests worldwide.

The Cost of Beijing’s Ambiguity Is Born by Free Nations Everywhere

True America First leadership demands calling out deceptive foreign policies that endanger our sovereignty and liberty indirectly. While the United Nations fails to halt this brutal invasion, Washington must recognize that relying on China as a mediator is futile when Beijing benefits strategically from prolonging conflict.

The question then becomes: will Washington stand firm for American values or allow globalist appeasement to dictate our foreign policy? President Trump understood these stakes by rejecting weak multilateralism and prioritizing direct action against adversaries. Today’s challenges prove that approach remains vital.

It is time for Congress and the administration to impose real consequences on Beijing — from tightening export controls to exposing its covert support for Putin’s war effort — signaling unwavering American resolve to defend freedom both at home and abroad.

In this critical moment, silence or half-measures only invite more aggression against sovereign nations like Ukraine—and eventually threaten America itself. The choice is clear: confront deception head-on or watch as global order unravels further.
