Foreign Minister Wang Yi and Vice Foreign Minister Le Yucheng have made statements since the invasion blaming the U.S. for not considering Russia\u2019s security concerns and denouncing the North Atlantic Treaty Organization\u2019s eastward expansion. In China\u2019s telling, the world should have sympathy for Ukraine not because it was attacked by Russia, but because it is the victim of a reckless U.S. bid to maintain geopolitical dominance.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>According to Beijing, the lesson for small countries is don\u2019t be used as a pawn. The U.S. will manipulate them into fighting proxy wars against its adversaries.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>China\u2019s main target is Asia. In its narrative, the region can avoid Europe\u2019s fate if it resists Washington\u2019s efforts to contain China. The Chinese Foreign Ministry has taken aim at the recently released U.S. strategy for the Indo-Pacific, which envisions a political and economic order free of Chinese coercion. Mr. Le warned that this strategy will \u201cprovoke trouble, put together closed and exclusive small circles or groups, and get the region off course toward fragmentation and bloc-based division.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><span>The <\/span><i><span>WSJ <\/span><\/i><span>suggested China did not really need to sell this message with the Ukraine crisis, since America\u2019s partners in Asia and the Middle East \u201cseem to prefer neutrality when confronted with authoritarian aggression.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cChina doesn\u2019t need allies to support its aggressive plans.
