Chinese President Xi Jinping's mission to Moscow was actually intended as a show of support for Kremlin ruler Vladimir Putin. Apparently, Xi also wanted to explore the possibility of a ceasefire in Ukraine - which is viewed very skeptically in Western capitals because it would freeze Russian territorial gains in Ukraine.
The Chinese could try to stage themselves as peacemakers, said John Kirby, spokesman for the United States National Security Council, on Friday. "We have serious concerns about this because it would effectively mean conditions that would benefit Russia to the detriment of Ukraine."
The arrest warrant for Putin issued by the International Criminal Court on Friday makes Xi's mission even more delicate for the Chinese. After all, the court's order finally made Putin a leper in the world community. Beijing is thus running the risk of being seen as a collaborator with a wanted war criminal, not only in the eyes of the West, but from the perspective of the entire world.
In any case, the damage to China's reputation would be considerable if it politically all too clearly took Moscow's side. Or if Beijing even supplied weapons that would prolong Moscow's mass murderous colonial war against Ukraine.
The International Criminal Court in The Hague wants to hold Russian President Putin accountable for war crimes in Ukraine. A stooge is also being investigated. She is said to be responsible for kidnapping children.

Xi completely miscalculated when he signed a friendship treaty with Putin shortly before the war, which was intended to strengthen the Kremlin ruler's back against the West. The Chinese dictator apparently assumed at the time that he would ally himself with the future winner of a war in Ukraine. Now, however, Beijing is not only on the losing side, but once again on the wrong side of international law. So China would be well advised to try to limit the damage and break away from the fatal partnership with Russia if it doesn't want to further ruin its reputation in the world.
