[@LIbertyorDeath419]

A lot has changed in two years. Would be great to get an update since this video was made. In that time, U.S. and NATO troops have been talking about mobilizing for general war against Russia. There's also been many Western contractors fighting on the side of the Ukrainians and many Chinese PLA veterans have joined the Russian military. Then we have the U.S. State Dept. floating the idea of sending Ukraine weaponry that will be used to conduct more strikes into Russia. That will mean Russia may be forced to take out staging areas inside NATO countries.

[@caf-l6p]

[@goodboi8569]

Thanks for the video! I wanted to point out some translations that could be better: 1:05 "I personally think the invasion is quite extreme" should be "I personally think the word 'invasion' is too extreme" 5:10 "We shouldn't step in because this is Ukraine's issue" should be "We shouldn't step in because Ukraine is the one who provoked Russia" 14:36 "First of all, the US has Taiwan's back..." should be "First of all, Taiwan's boss, the US, won't agree to it" edit: adding 6:15 "We won't abandon the situation either" should be "we also won't send weapons to (either Ukraine or Russia)" from user Rhapsody in comments

Thanks. Precision in language (native language or translation) is very important.

[@teddytatyo]

some of the mistranslations drastically change the meaning of what was spoken. 6:14 The translation was "We wont't abandon the situation either." when it should have been "We would not supply arms to either sides." 12:19 The translation was " I hope the US can stop this situation" when it should have been "I hope that the US would refrain from intervening in the war, so that the world in general would be more peaceful."

[@蓝俊毅-z6s]

In fact, China's consultation and freedom of speech are much better than those in the West. The western media are full of lies! Why do European and Western media dare not prove that they report China? That's because China is more fair and free of speech than them. Americans call a picture of a Chinese school a Chinese concentration camp. It's ridiculous that the whole west believes it!! Because Americans can start a war with a bag of washing powder!!! So the overall IQ of westerners is really not high! It's easy to be brainwashed by the media!!

[@AustinCMN]

Really disappointed with the quality of the translation. It's not just very loosely translated. Some sentences are barely related to the original or even mean the opposite. Here's a few examples of what the correct translation should be. Please judge for yourselves. 1:06 Personally, I think it might be too harsh to describe it as an "invasion". 4:08 dispatched their armed forces 4:23 They aimed their guns and missiles at Russia's door 4:53 (second sentence) if we can sign a treaty then we'll try not to resort to violence. 5:06-5:20 We shouldn't step in because Ukraine provoked the situation in the first place. Russia has been provoked, but it has not been invaded. 5:53 but we can urge them to stop or share our views. 6:15 We won't send weapons to the battlefield (meaning they won't contribute to the war) 8:19 blatantly (not blindly) 9:02 to tackle intense situations 12:20 I hope that the US can stop meddling in issues like this in the future so that there can be world peace. 15:18 The US benefits from our conflict. (Literally: The US is watching the tigers fight（观虎）. The Chinese saying 坐山观虎斗 "sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight" means to watch in safety whilst others fight then reap the rewards when both sides are exhausted) 16:45 no family can bear the pain of losing a loved one.

I totally condemn the Russian invasion of Ukraine. But for those who have a bad view of the old man's opinion. First you have to remember what his generation went through, the sacrifices they had to make for the current generation. Before China became an economic superpower they were always bullied by the west, who helped their country a lot back then only Russia. He saw many things that the present generation does not see.

[@WINFIELD32750]

True, but I would add that with a higher expectation for economic abundance and choice, there also needs to be a higher expectation for an abundance of information he must gather for him to be informed with.

[@TheTruth-vs9wo]

Is China the only Country that have been bullied by West? The continent of Africa were bullied by the West and stripped of all their mineral resources in the past by the West till this present day but they aren’t even talking about it.

[@asw654]

@@sowersass2 they are against it. You just won’t notice if you only pay attention to public speeches they give to audiences that include the international community, because they don’t like stirring up too much trouble. They don’t want a criticize an ally and they don’t want the USA to come out looking like the “good guys” because to China the US is a huge bully who always harass them and send agents to destabilize them and also use propaganda against them and even send scholars/diplomats to threaten countries that get close to China. So yeah it won’t be easy spotting overt words that reveal their thoughts on the invasion. You’ll have to interpret their words and position. They say they support territorial sovereignty, in which case it’s Russia violating that. They also see themselves in Ukraine’s position and the USA as Russia using a BS genocide (against Uyghurs or ethnic Russians) as the excuse to invade. In private I’ve heard people in CPC I know saying this invasion is a disaster (that being said the CPC is almost 100 million people, practically everyone is in or knows someone in the CPC so it’s not like it’s a monolith with one single opinion).

I love how Chinese view America as the ones provoking the situation. Countries like Ukraine, Kosovo, and Georgie have been begging Europe to join the EU and Nato. Its hilarious seeing the authoriatarian bootlickers try to blame other countries for fuckups. America is retarded, but at the very least had a coherent justification behind its invasion of Iraq and Afghanistan. China seemed to want to invade Tibet, because apparently to free tibetan slaves, "Glorious mao zedong must arise from the heaven" and become the new tibetan slave masters. I used to be partial towards these types of politics, but after Ukraine, im in genuine disbeleif, over how China, a nation I thought atleast had good leaders now, would even support Russia after what they did. America may be incompetent, but atleast the Americans arent bootlickers. Jesus christ.

Wow, i dont know where to start, so first of all: thank you so much from the bottom of my heart for your great Work and for giving me the possibility to listen to chinese people from the Streets of every day life. I hope so much this video is authentic and not a staged theater. Nowadays i really dont know so well what i can belive or not. All the people who have spoken have a diferent opinion and in my opinion all of them are right in some way. Me personally i wish for peace for all humanity. additionaly without any superpowers that are acting like some sort of police. Of course this is a very naive thought. i can see that there are so many different needs and perspectives. it is not possible for all the wishes to come true. I hope so much for a fair play in a very childish naive way. Also i hope that many more people grow mentahlly and spiritually so that we can see each other as brothers and sistern of different mothers. This way we do not need any boarders any more. Here where i live, in this video you call it the west, i see and hear many people who have the exact same feelinge, fears, hopes and wishes as the people in your video. Of course this is just an example of the many different points of view that exist on our planet. Our home. our only home in the Galaxy. I dream about and wish for enought strength of the humans of this planet to hold togeather as one big family. and that the strong people hold and suport the not so ready ones. to take them with us on this journey that we call life with the goal of becoming truly concious and aware about ourselves as human beings. Many bad things have been done by humans to other humans. the truly strong human is forgiving. And i hope and i dream that there will be no beeings that interfear in a negative way to stop this process of growing togeather. Of course it is ALL so extremly complicated. I know for sure we have the power to overcome the childhood and the adolescence of humanity and can become grownup humans in a concious way of existence, without further hurting each other. Time will heal all wounds and love will protect us and nurish this process. Thank you so much for your work. I hope to see many more other people from all over this planet and be able to listen to theire thoughts. It is like a symphony. We will overcome the complications. the complications will not dissapeat but we will find a way to deal with them in peace and harmony. peace out, your Brother from annother mother you give me more hope with your work, thank you

Good interview and it does represent the general sentiment in China.

Some Chinese (the minority) stand on the side of Ukraine more than russia. 2) They think that China should not intervene. 3) Most of them blames NATO and US more. 4) The girl refers to Xi as winnie the pooh and gets away with it. This debunks the idea that winnie the pooh is a forbidden subject in China. No secret police is going to go after you if you say Xi is like winnie the pooh. 5) One guy wish that China will have leader like putin and says it will be interesting. He is not alone and many people in China feels that Chinese gov is too soft on some issues. If China is a liberal "democracy", then there will be war already in Taiwan and South China Sea.

Within Russia, the people supporting the war are one's who rely on the state media. Even in this case, it's divided along generational lines as younger people are more likely to rely on media from the internet rather than the state. It's the same thing outside of Russia and the west. People who rely on media outside of the confines of the state, will always have a broader view.

I see a great deal more reflection here of inaccurate information being fed to the Chinese people, following the ruzzian nonsense about how they were somehow "forced" to invade Ukraine because there was a chance that some day Ukraine might join NATO. The ONLY reason why ANY eastern European nations have wanted to join NATO since being liberated from the Soviet yoke in 1989-91 is ruzzia's 400 year long history of brutal, aggressive, aggrandizing and sometimes genocidal wars against its neighbors. If ruzzia wanted to keep Ukraine out of NATO, all it had to do was become a halfway decent neighbor.

[@姒鱼]

Chinese official media do not report much on negative news about the world, but prefer to cover interesting events and technological developments in various countries. Would you be surprised. This is a fact. But another fact is that media in democratic countries are very enthusiastic about reporting negative news about China, sometimes even deliberately exaggerating or creating stories based on pictures. In the era of self media, many bad things in the world are learned by Chinese people through self media. We have many overseas students and business people who spread information to social networks in China. It may be related to culture. Usually, Chinese people educate their children by instilling a beautiful side of the world in them. We believe that this way, children will grow into upright and responsible individuals. I think the country is also based on this consideration. If we instill in other countries how bad it is for a long time, it will cultivate a large amount of populism. Chinese media usually choose to report on bad things happening in the world in a balanced manner. If it concerns our country, it will let citizens know what is happening in the world that harms our interests. However, they will not attempt to exaggerate the facts and fabricate news content to provoke public emotions and incite Chinese people to hate which country. Chinese official media reports on foreign-related news usually follow a Chinese proverb "点到为止."（I find it difficult to describe this word in English.） At the same time, American politicians, propaganda machines, constantly sow the seeds of hatred towards China in the hearts of Americans. The media in the United States are more inclined to incite than those in China. Based on these, many Chinese people are actually very dissatisfied with our country's media. Everyone has learned from self media how Western big media smear our country, so they are very dissatisfied with the lack of equal combat effectiveness of our official media.

However, right now the government is as confused and nervous as the western world. So it does not provide any strong opinion officially to the people, only vague, neutral even fence-sitting declarations. China needs Russia as an ally but does not want to be dragged into a war.

Hi, mistranslation at 5:06. When asked (if China should intervene), what the young lady said was " No, we (China) shouldn't step in. First of all, these matters were stirred up by Ukraine, and Ukraine provoked Russia. It's not that Russia is being violated here. If Russia were being violated, China could offer support to Russia." Hope this helps. Btw, thanks AB for making this video so we get to sample different views. Key word is *sample*, because some people complain that AB twists the content etc. But the fact is that these street interviews do not, and (understandably) are not able to, represent a whole population! So such videos are meant to give us an opportunity to **sample** the views of the average person in various countries, on various current issues as they are happening. (Not forgetting also that many people in real life decline to be interviewed or filmed, so for every interviewee you see here, several others have declined and walked away.)

Context is important. The question was “Since China is an ally of Russia’s, do you think China should interfere (and help Russia)?” Her answer was “Ukraine did provoke Russia(by threatening to join NATO) BUT didn’t really cause Russia any harm, which is why China should not interfere and help Russia.” She didn’t blame Ukraine for “provoking” Russia (which they probably did as far as Russia is concerned). She was simply saying, no, China will not and should not step in and help Russia. In that sense, the translation was not too far off and did capture her answer.
