China hat offenbar wenig Bock drauf, wegen Putins Abenteuer die eigene Wirtschaft zu schwächen:
"China's largest state controlled banks are limiting financing to purchase raw materials from Russia
ICBC and Bank of China fear secondary sanctions"

"China is the only friend that might help Russia blunt the impact of economic sanctions over its invasion of Ukraine, but President Xi Jinping's government is giving no sign it might be willing to risk its own access to U.S. and European markets by doing too much.
Even if Beijing wanted to, its ability to support President Vladimir Putin by importing more Russian gas and other goods is limited."
(...)
"Xi's government might support Putin within those limits - and Chinese companies might use the situation to pursue better deals - but will balk at openly violating sanctions and being targeted for penalties, experts said.
'China doesn't want to get so involved that it ends up suffering as a result of its support for Russia,' said Mark Williams, chief Asia economist for Capital Economics."
