They could have vetoed the US “peace” plan at the security council.
They could have cut all business relations with the Zionist Entity.
Maybe they could have even twisted Putin’s arm and made him choose between Zionism and continued access to Chinese markets!
Who knows? Perhaps they could have even “ruined Christmas” for the western consumer economies by holding up exports and saying “The presents will stop until the genocide stops. If the people in Bethlehem and the rest of Palestine can’t celebrate Christmas in peace then no trinkets for you.”
There are lots of levers to pull when you are the world’s largest export economy!
But “national development” takes priority over proletarian internationalism. No wonder internationalism is left to ideology grounded in the likes of Islam when the world’s largest “socialist” state continues to show every time it matters that they will do realpolitik for the sake of their capital rather than accept potential economic challenges. Making Chinese middle class incomes continue to grow so they can afford to become car-brained is more important.
I do not believe that continuing marketization of the Chinese economy nor keeping business relations with Israel are necessary or even beneficial towards the end of international socialism’s victory over capitalism.
You think sending troops or their navy to Venezuela, potentially contributing to the escalation to WWIII (as trump et all would see it as a challenge to face down not a deterrent to their invasion/strikes/whatever they have planned) would be good for Venezuela, international socialism or the world in general?

Developing China to become a real military threat to US geopolitical dominance, and not fall into the trap the USSR did is more important
Wining the war is more important than winning every battle

that wasn’t my question, it was:
