China and Russia veto new UN sanctions on North Korea for first time since 2006
amp.cnn.com
Russia and China on Thursday vetoed a US-drafted United Nations Security Council resolution to strengthen sanctions on North Korea in a vote the US ambassador to the UN called dangerous, disappointing and likely to fuel Pyongyang's program to develop nuclear-capable missile systems.

The UN Security Council, under pressure from the west, was about to slap the DPRK with even more sanctions. And this during a Covid outbreak, completely heartless! But the imperialists didnt count on internationalist solidarity! Russia and China, despite the deranged cries of the imperialists (“muh dictatorships and nukes”), vetoed the sanctions package. Yes!

      Russia has grown immune to American sanctions due to their “fortress economy” and the new interdependent non-Western economies. More and more Western companies trickling away is just digging Western capitalism into a bigger hole.
