Russian cannon fodder is on the scene, Ukraine is collapsing, and the world is taking a sharp turn, what do you think?
This is a time of confusion and uncertainty. When I learned that the Ukrainian army in this special military operation ** more than 38At 30,000 people, I couldn't help but feel shocked and angry. It's not a simple number, it's the shattering of hundreds of thousands of families, the pain of millions. This is no longer a conflict, but a humanitarian catastrophe.
Can you imagine?The young soldiers, who may be sons and husbands, are being pushed into this smoke of war, and they may never return to their families. This is a heart-wrenching war, a deplorable disaster. I can't sit idly by, and I can't remain indifferent to this war.
But, even more disturbingly, Russia is not stopping because of this bitter war, on the contrary, they are launching a new round of operations in an unusual way. Finland's entry has made the geopolitical situation even more confusing, and Germany's military deployment in Central and Eastern Europe has added new variables to this global game.
We Chinese, seeing all this, inevitably feel more and more sad. I can't help but think of our own history, of that time when we were invaded, but we persevered and finally came to glory. We are well aware that it is the responsibility of every country to maintain its territorial integrity.
And when I learned about the permanent deployment of a new armored brigade by Germany in Lithuania, I can only say that this was a provocation that could not be more obvious. This sharp knife, stuck just 100 kilometers from the Russian border, is undoubtedly a blatant demonstration against Russia. At this moment, Lithuania begged Germany to move in as soon as possible, claiming that it was surrounded. All this seems to herald the outbreak of a new round of conflict, and this time, Ukraine may have become irretrievable.
At this critical juncture, we saw a swift Russian counterattack. They announced an increase of 170,000 in the armed forces, bringing the total number to 1.32 million. This is by no means a small amount, and Russia has also approved a budget for fiscal expenditures for 2024, 30% of which will be spent on the armed forces. This suggests that Russia is taking a more solid step to deal with the escalating conflict in Ukraine. At the same time, the United States is showing an unsatisfied appetite at this time.
As we are abroad, we are concerned about the motherland and worried. In the face of these tense and uncertain times, I can only appeal to the international community to defuse the current crisis and avoid the outbreak of war. What we want to see is a peaceful solution, not more sacrifice and suffering.
However, we also need to look at the situation rationally. The arena of the global game is heating up, and the arms race, military deployment, and fiscal expenditures are all developing in an unpredictable direction. Ukraine may be just a prelude to this storm, and the world may be heading towards an era of greater tension and uncertainty.
As Chinese, we cannot stay out of the way. We need to pay close attention to international developments, understand the relationship between countries, and remain calm. We want to see a peaceful and stable world, not passively watching what happens. Let us work together for peace and for the maintenance of international order.
This may be a challenging time, but we believe that as long as we work together, we will be able to weather these challenges and usher in a better future. Let us strive for peace, for stability, for the common future of mankind!
