Russia is not fighting alone in its war of aggression against Ukraine, which began in 2014 and escalated to a massive scale in February 2022.

On Tuesday, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky announced the capture of two Chinese soldiers on Ukrainian territory, while they were fighting with the Russian army. Zelensky noted that there are more Chinese soldiers in the invading army:

Our military captured two Chinese citizens fighting in the Russian army. This happened on Ukrainian territory, in the Donetsk region. There are documents belonging to these prisoners, bank cards, and personal data.

We have information that there are significantly more than two Chinese citizens in the occupation units. We are now uncovering all the facts. Intelligence services, the Security Service of Ukraine, and relevant units of the Armed Forces are working at this location.

On his Telegram channel, the Ukrainian president posted a video of one of the captured soldiers, noting that they are in the hands of the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU). Zelensky added:

This definitely needs a reaction. A reaction from the United States, from Europe, and from everyone in the world who wants peace.

Beijing is not the first Asian communist dictatorship whose soldiers have participated in this invasion. It should be recalled that in 2024, Ukraine denounced the sending of soldiers by North Korea to support the invaders. Let us also remember that in this invasion, Russia is receiving millions of North Korean projectiles and thousands of Iranian drones to attack Ukraine, and specifically its civilian population.

The involvement of Chinese soldiers in the invasion is not new news. Images of Chinese soldiers in Ukraine were already released in March. Therefore, it is reasonable to assume that Western intelligence services are aware of this fact and its implications.

Although some insist on whitewashing this undemocratic regime, it is important to remember that Communist China is a one-party dictatorship, a totalitarian regime that has ruled mainland China since 1949 without holding free elections even once, systematically violating the most basic human rights and perpetrating one of the largest genocides in history.

By now, any democratic government should be clear that a dictatorship like that cannot be whitewashed by maintaining relations with it as if it were a democratic country and even favoring its commercial interests in the West, as some European governments are doing. Communist China's participation in the invasion of Ukraine deserves a reaction from the West in the form of sanctions against that regime and, furthermore, increasing the sending of military aid to Ukraine, whose people are fighting alone against soldiers from three dictatorships.

Ukraine is not only fighting for its freedom and independence, but has become the front line of the free world against the new barbarians, against anti-democratic regimes that believe that power should have no limits and that respect for human rights is despicable. If Ukraine were defeated, tomorrow's next invasion could be against a NATO member country. Russia is already setting targets in the Baltic states, in case anyone still had doubts. After that, let no one come along and say that this couldn't be known.
