which is obviously needed on the battlefield, particularly around back mood, where ukrainian forces are under pressure at this very moment in time. at the same time, there's the overarching issue of what china will actually do after it said, it doesn't want to see any war that it wants all countries to accept the existing borders as they stand, which would of course, also apply to its own borders, which could potentially involve taiwan. well, there are expectations almost on the western side that china may deliver weapons to russia, and that is certainly a line in the sand that as we've learned, would draw consequences from the west, from the united states and from the europeans. so those were the key issues we know were discussed behind closed doors, the most intense consultations since both leaders are in office between the 2 sides
