Ukraine is not a monolith. You’d be surprised to know how many people on pro-Ukraine channels have a relatively moderate and unbiased view on China. But Ukraine is barely trying to keep its statehood together, so it’s not a surprise you have unhinged people like the one above running around badmouthing China. He’s a typical twitter keyboard warrior who feels emboldened by the unconditional support from the West. He has even called for sanctions against India and China. I wouldn’t take him seriously. Zelensky seems to show understanding of China’s position and that’s all that matters for now. Ignore the trolls.

What is a pax?
If he is calling for Macron's head then unfortunately it is too late since 50% of the French people are already doing the same thing so he needs to wait in line.
Pax = persons
To what degree does Zelensky control his country?
For once I don't think CIA is involved this time.
I don’t know but it seems to me that if he hasn’t been able to control radical groups like Azov battalion from taking high positions of power then I doubt he has the resources to police his officials’ twitter accounts.
Zelensky is a separate figure than Ukraine establishment and it is understood in UAE to certain extent as those countries look at personality of leaders much closer. i doubt he went to UAE in 2021 only for Ukraine. more like creating personal relationships. his wife later trip spend a bit of time there later on.
Which in other words. Zelensky holds no power. The stance that because it’s not Zelenskyy saying it then it shouldn’t matter is complete nonsense when he is the puppet leader and thus easily replaceable.
Should China take Biden words to heart that they aren't pushing for Taiwan independence? As his own party, admin, and military does the exact opposite of his promises?
Somewhere in the middle of what the US and Russia claim in propaganda. Zelensky, on one hand, is not giving every bit of information and truth about the state of the VSU to the US. This goes against Russian ideas that he’s a complete puppet of the US. This is the “black hole” people are referring to about Ukrainian casualties. On the other hand, he receives quite a bit of conditional assistance from NATO (ISR, weapons) but has to prove himself through an offensive they direct. Zelensky also has a lot of personal latitude since he keeps Ukrainians in Bakhmut even when the loss ratio clearly isn’t in their favor.
