Matthew Whitaker, United States Permanent Representative to NATO:

I think we all need to understand that really China thinks they're fighting a proxy war through Russia. And we're seeing in some statements by the Chinese government that they want to keep the United States and our allies occupied with this war so that we can't focus on our other strategic challenges. And that's just not true.

It's not going to happen. China, I think, is miscalculated, but I think they need to be called out for their subsidizing this killing that is happening on the battlefields in Ukraine.
