Unknown state of affairs...on the one hand, China needs/wants trade
with other countries, but on the other hand, they gain more turf.

As Mick Jagger  said, "You can't always get what you want"

They have tried intimidation, but do they want to risk being cut off
from "free trade" is the question.  Economically and employment wise,
a heavy burden, if other countries eliminate trade with them.

And then, there is the nuke response....does any country want to tread
this path? 

What the T-Borg doesn't fully understand is if Putin is successful,
this will serve as a guide for them to acquire more turf.
