China: sends Russia six helicopters (before the war), some children's toys, a box of consumer-grade hunting scopes, and metal. They are the bad guys who are prolonging the war.

NATO: sends Ukraine weapons and military vehicles worth more than China's entire military budget, and provides training and logistics support. They are the good guys trying to end the war.

Yes because giving some one the ability to defend their country, and supporting an invasion have the same moral implications

supporting an invasion

China: sends Russia ~~six helicopters (before the war),~~

  • some children's toys,
  • a box of consumer-grade hunting scopes, and
  • metal.

Seems a bit thin to be supporting an invasion

they sent metal metal. famously russia lacks any source of metals so they needed that for the war
