RT works for me (on my client's computer, behind all sorts of sophisticated firewalling designed, in particular, to keep the Russians out).
So, according to RT, China is toeing the Russian line : this is all about the "Great Powers" (Russia, China and the US), and this is not how we do business.
Europe is merely sideswiped in a passive-aggressive mention ("the US and its allies"), even though it's the EU doing the heavy boycotting. It is rightly acknowledged that people of faith have no monopoly of virtue - Queen Elizabeth II
