This war will not end till U.S. and China decide it will. Chris Hedges' new book on war "The greatest evil is War" is worth a read right about now.

U.S. will stoke this war till Russia relents or Putin is removed but neither is in China's interests. What is in China's interest is NATO depleting its resources and over-extending the U.S. military as much as possible for the day when they make a play for Taiwan. "A play" doesn't necessarily mean a full-scale invasion BTW.
