As long as religion propogates loyalty to country and party as its most importabt commandment, I have no problem.
The link in Taylor Fravel's twitter post led to the same article your posted. They are right in the sense that Chinese official readout doesn't contain words Ukraine (乌克兰), no limit partnership (中俄关系无上限) or unilateral sanctions (单边制裁). Going by key words alone they are not wrong. Although, analyzing the entire statement could result in different opinions.

Completely lose influence.
They have been politically cleaned up many times in history.
This religion has been confined to a very small group of believers: ethnic minorities.
Moreover, missionaries also face many problems: poor translation, the theory of original sin contradicts the theory of good nature in China, and too much borrowing of Buddhist concepts leads to being regarded as Buddhist heresy.
So the spread of Christianity in China later had nothing to do with Nestorians.
The problem with this assumption is that China has been guarding against Russian influence. In China, the spread of Orthodoxy was completely dependent on the expansion of Russia.
And the atheist dominated regime is also unwilling to see the church encroach on social leadership.The influence of the Church has never been limited to within the church.
I don't know what they care about.
I think this sentence is enough to express a lot of things.
However, the visit in recent days shows that China is bound to gain more influence in Central Asia.
In China, an often surprisingly vocal civilian (considered a crazy guy) called for an early agreement with Russia on the distribution of interests in Central Asia at the beginning of the war.
Clear interest demands can reduce unnecessary suspicion.

The sizes are misleading due to the Mercator projection.
I remember when I saw this giant Earth globe at my local science centre, it was the first time I realized how big Africa actually was.
That's the rules-based order -- whatever rules the US wants, it gets.
Countries around the world are realizing that the US dollar is part of the rules-based order: those who make the rules can steal your money from you when they feel like it. The trust is gone.
So nearly everyone is dumping the dollar, slowly but steadily. , to 71.5% in 2001, to 66% in 2014, and to 58.8% in the fourth quarter of 2021. I would love to see what the percentage is now, after $300 billion got stolen from the Russians.
