It's not all about propaganda, Atlasclub.
If the United States was on the border with China, China would grind them to pieces.
I think that neither the West nor Russia are as well organized as China. You have an example of the Covid-19 and how quickly the Chinese solved that problem. What I think about the Western policy of intimidation, belittling, blackmail, hypocrisy, I have already written. Everyone in the world knows that the West is an empire of lies, and they know that in the West itself. The whole "Western civilization" and the whole "free world" (sounds very hypocritical and quite fascist), together with Russia and the former USSR states, have fewer inhabitants than the People's Republic of China.

I honestly think that the United States and Russia have an advantage over China only in terms of submarines, nuclear arsenal, and that's about it.
I think we will hear more and more about China in the coming period. To me, the Chinese act like biological robots, humans, yes, but organized like robots. India can NEVER be like China. The yellow race is different, it is fanatical and consistent in achieving its goals. The Indians seem pliable to me and I see that it is possible to manipulate them. With China? No way! Everyone around World War II is talking about "powerful" Germans, even though Japan was NOT defeated in the conventional war.
Everyone around this conflict in Ukraine writes that the United States will emerge as the biggest winner, but I think it will be China.
China is becoming the No. 1 superpower rapidly. I can't even imagine what force the Chinese Army would represent on the ground. And the West? The West has redirected its military force to aviation and precision-guided missiles of all kinds. It's all OK, but that's not how the war is won. Where the military boot does not pass, the war is not won.

Look at the mess of Western youth, the idiotic men and women who are good for nothing. China deserves to conquer and massacre them.

No denying that western values tanked... bad... But you clearly haven't seen modern Chinese. Youth there and I am talking about rich ones are as bad as Westerners 10 years ago.
No wonder Mukbang is most popular in China. Only thing that keeps China from going the same route as failed western cultures is their government. I would still say Soviet Union was superior in all regards than China ever was, but I am biased as I grew up in USSR

Genghis Khan.

You might want to hit the history books

Mongolian tribunes are the genetic basis of modern Chinese. It's like saying Vikings and Swedes. And the Mongols bequeathed a lot to the Chinese. You must believe the Western hoax that they only destroyed when they were talented merchants.
No, Mao's China was much better than the USSR, that's why it didn't disappear. The USSR was great until Stalin because he was a convinced nationalist. After Stalin, the USSR had a succession of useless leaders.
Chinese youth is far superior to the West, it is clear that you do not know Chinese. In Argentina there are several.

According to the colonel general, the humanitarian situation is serious in certain districts of Mariupol controlled by Ukrainian armed units

MOSCOW, April 4./TASS/. On April 5, Russia will once again open a humanitarian corridor for the evacuation of civilians and foreign nationals from Mariupol, it offers the Ukrainian military, territorial defense battalions and foreign mercenaries to lay down arms and exit the city towards Zaporozhye, Mikhail Mizintsev, chief of Russia’s National Defense Management Center, said on Monday.

"Solely for humanitarian purposes and also at the request of the Turkish side, the Russian Federation reopens humanitarian corridors from 06:00 on April 5, 2022 for the evacuation of foreign nationals and civilians from Mariupol. It is also ready to ensure the entry of ships involved in the evacuation into the port of Berdyansk and exit from it in compliance with the rules of international maritime law," Mizintsev said.

I don't agree with this at all, why let these people escape after what they've done to the people and city of Mariupol? Will they also let the french bastards who coordinated the neonazis go too?

NATO is expecting Russia to conduct a “very concentrated” attack in the east of Ukraine, with the aim of capturing the entire Donbas region, Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg said Tuesday.

“We now see a significant movement of troops away from Kyiv to regroup, re-arm and re-supply, and a shift in focus to the east,” he told reporters in Brussels.

“In the coming weeks we expect a further Russian push in the east and southern Ukraine, to try to take the entire Donbas and to create a land bridge to the occupied Crimea.”
Pro-Russian separatists already control parts of the Donbas region. Fighting has endured there since 2014, and Russian President Vladimir Putin formally recognized the two breakaway regions of Luhansk and Donetsk as independent republics, just before the recent invasion began.

“So this is a crucial phase of the war," warned Stoltenberg.

First time I am seeing ATGM usage against helicopters. So far Stugna and other domestic systems look like the main threat to Russians, not NLAWs and not Javelins as you can detect their operators fairly easily. Operators of Ukrainian ATGMs seem to be either in the bunkers or far away, up to 100 meters from the launcher. It's not a fire and forget system, it's much more dangerous in my opinion. Anything but artillery strike on ATGM positions won't be enough. The launcher itself would be invisible up until the launch, there's no delay or cooling time needed as in Javelin, it can be camouflaged easily.

Belarusian Shershen is even more capable in this scenario. And I think Belarusians have said they are working on remote control units for Konkurs ATGMs. Is there any Russian equivalent to this?

They are surrounded and need to be destroyed.
Furthermore, it will be another moral boost for the Kiev regime, after Russian troops withdrew from there.
