Abstract:
The article studies the Silesian, Low Prussian, and East Pomeranian names of metal-processing craftsmen of the 14th–16th centuries. The article substantiates the topicality of studying the German dialects that disappeared due to the World War II, analyses specialized literature, characterizes the history of studying the German names of craftsmen in the former East-German dialects, determines the level of their coverage, formulates the objective and task of the publication and outlines the perspectives of further academic research. Besides, the article provides the insight into the word-formative peculiarities of the names of craftsmen, the form of their fixation within the Silesian, Low Prussian, and East Pomeranian dialects. Each form is accompanied by the data concerning the time and place of the fixation. The research established, 63 names of metal-processing craftsmen. They include: а) names of manufacturers of small items for household and clerical use; b) makers of arms and armor; c) moulders; d) jewelers and coiners; e) common names to designate smith; f) other names of craftsmen. The formative bases of metal-processing craftsmen were established: а) names of handicrafts; b) names of materials of which they were produced; c) names of craftsmen’s actions; d) names of the color of the processed material; e) according to the general characteristic of the items; f) according to the general characteristic of the materials. Besides, 1/3 of the names of craftsmen are formed with suffixes: -er, -ler, -ner, -ir, -orre, and 2/3 bi-root. The other word-formative bases in the names of the craftsmen with the different roots are as follows: -schmied, -gießer, -macher, -hauer, -feger, -böter, -gräber, -schläger, -schneider, -schlosser, -zieher. 16 synonymic rows can be identified within the established names of metal-processing craftsmen.

Abstract:
Purpose This study aims to present a history and critical analysis of arms and armor collecting in America from the late 19th century until the present day. Design/methodology/approach The research draws from the literature on arms and armor, from primary written, visual and material evidence, and from the author’s long experience as an antique gun and sword collector. Findings American arms and armor collectors have included men of great wealth, museums and their curators and many enthusiasts of more modest means. Collectors, dealers and curators have created a substantial arms literature. Collectors have organized around various types of artifacts, historical periods and company brands. Dealers, auction houses and manufacturers have provisioned the market with period pieces and reproductions. Originality/value The history of antique arms and armor collecting is regarded as a social activity where enthusiasts have pursued “serious leisure” through consumption and brand communities. This history is further analyzed as a cultural practice wherein generations of collectors have interpreted the meaning of antique arms and armor.

Abstract:
La course aux armements navals anglo-allemande fut un des facteurs clés dans le déclenchement de la Première Guerre mondiale. En particulier, les années comprises entre 1906 et 1912 ont vu une compétition intense entre les deux pays dans la construction de vaisseaux de ligne modernes - des croiseurs lourds blindés - après que le Dreadnought fut lancé par les Britanniques. Tant que l'Allemagne n'était pas prête à accepter la suprématie navale britannique et que la Grande-Bretagne ne voulait pas la céder, la compétition dura jusqu'à ce qu'une des deux parties cède par essoufflement économique. L'Allemagne a essayé de traduire son pouvoir économique en force militaire mais échoua à cause de son système de fiscalité moins efficace qu'en Grande-Bretagne. Le fait que le trésor britannique pouvait imposer et augmenter aussi bien des impôts directs qu'indirects tandis qu'en Allemagne seuls les états fédéraux pouvaient le faire, démontre que le système constitutionnel britannique était plus flexible que l'allemand, permettant au gouvernement de Londres de mobiliser plus de ressources financières pour contrer l'Allemagne dans les dépenses navales
The Anglo-German naval race was one of the decisive factors in the outbreak of World War I. In particular, the years between 1906 and 1912 witnessed an intense head-to-head competition between the two powers in the building of modern capital ships, that is, battleships and large armoured cruisers, after Dreadnought had been launched by the British. So long as Germany was not prepared to accept British naval supremacy and Britain was not prepared to yield it, the competition was bound to go on until economic exhaustion compelled one side to give up. Germany tried to translate its wealth into military power, but the inefficient nature of its taxation system prevented it from doing so. The fact that Britain's Treasury had the power to both levy and increase direct and indirect taxes, while in Germany only state governments had it shows that Britain's more democratic constitutional system meant that London could react to Germany's naval challenge by punishment, mobilizing a greater share of financial resources for naval spending than Berlin

Full text
Abstract:
The main question of this thesis originated from the following observation: during the reign of Sultan Abdülhamid II (r.1876-1909) - especially after the 1880s - the German armament firms (GAFs) obtained a monopoly position in the Ottoman military market and maintained their position for decades. Based upon this observation the question of this thesis is: How did the Germans manage to get this status and protect it for decades, in particular, in a quite competitive market, where the American, British, and the French firms had been dominant for years? This thesis, which has fundamentally relied on multi-national archival research, does not seek the answer with reference to the ordinary theory of supply and demand but in the realm of the inter-personal relations and the personal influence of some influential personalities/statesmen who somehow intervened themselves into the war business from both sides (i.e. the Ottoman Empire and Germany). In the line with this argument, the principal aim of this thesis is to examine the impact of the non-commercial factors of the arms trade on the GAFs’ successful war business in the Ottoman military market. For that purpose throughout the dissertation the acts and doings of Bismarck; Kaiser Wilhelm II; Von der Goltz Pasha and the other German military advisors who were employed in the Ottoman Army; Sultan Abdülhamid II and the Ottoman bureaucrats/officers will be discussed within the context of their contribution to the German armament firms’ successful war business in the Ottoman market.

Full text
Abstract:
The thesis analyses the development of German strategic culture since the end of the Cold War. Since the end of the Cold War, Germany has participated in several international military interventions, for example in Kosovo and Afghanistan. This marked a departure from Germany's strategic behaviour during the Cold War, when the country pursued a foreign policy of military restraint. The dominant view in Germany at the time was that the gross human rights violations committed by the Nazi regime during the Second World War stipulated the need for the country to be a responsible international player. Responsibility was interpreted as a moral imperative to refrain from any military action abroad, and it formed an essential part of German strategic culture. The change in German strategic behaviour after the end of the Cold War thus poses the question as to why Germany changed its behaviour, and how this change has been facilitated in German strategic culture. To understand the post-Cold War change in Germany's strategic behaviour, it is necessary to understand the underlying mechanisms of change. The thesis sheds lights on these mechanisms by utilising a strategic culture approach. It argues that German executive decision-makers have incrementally modified German strategic culture in response to a changing strategic environment by utilising a human rights narrative. Instead of interpreting responsibility as an imperative for military restraint, the notion of responsibility was reframed as an imperative for protecting human rights abroad. Thus, the reconfiguration of German strategic culture rendered military intervention a justifiable instrument of German foreign policy. German Federal President Joachim Gauck epitomised this reconfiguration when, in 2014, he demanded that in the 'fight for human rights or the survival of innocent human beings, it is sometimes necessary to take up arms'.

Abstract:
Rozprawa doktorska pt. „Ekonomizacja polityki bezpieczeństwa Niemiec w latach 1998-2013” podejmuje szereg problemów. Najważniejsze i centralne pytania dotyczą hierarchii interesów polityki zagranicznej i bezpieczeństwa Niemiec – jakie są i jak kształtują się priorytety oraz z czego wynikają? Jaki wpływ na nie mają uwarunkowania wewnętrzne i zewnętrzne polityki bezpieczeństwa Niemiec? Jaką rolę odgrywają gospodarka i handel międzynarodowy, a jaką wartości i normy ukształtowane pod wpływem doświadczeń II wojny światowej? Czy w przyjętym okresie dokonały się zmiany w tym zakresie? Autorka wychodzi z założenia, że specyfiką polityki bezpieczeństwa Niemiec do 1998 r. było to, że jej priorytety wynikały z wartości i opierały się na celach takich jak demokratyzacja, promocja praw człowieka i pokoju, umacnianie prawa międzynarodowego i instytucji międzynarodowych. Interesy gospodarcze Niemiec zajmowały drugie miejsce w sferze działań i przede wszystkim deklaracji.Od czasu dojścia do władzy ekipy Gerharda Schrödera doszło do stopniowej zmiany polityki bezpieczeństwa RFN poprzez jej ekonomizację. W pracy przyjęto rozumienie ekonomizacji jako procesu dwustopniowego. Po pierwsze, w jej wyniku dochodzi do aprecjacji interesów gospodarczych w polityce zagranicznej i bezpieczeństwa państw. Takie kwestie jak handel międzynarodowy czy dostęp do surowców i bezpieczeństwo szlaków dostaw stają się priorytetami. W razie sprzeczności między interesami gospodarczymi a innymi, przykładowo zachowaniem solidarności sojuszniczej czy promowaniem ochrony praw człowieka, realizowane są przede wszystkim te pierwsze. Drugi aspekt polega na takim kształtowaniu oraz wykorzystywaniu narzędzi polityki zagranicznej i bezpieczeństwa, aby zapewnić realizację interesów gospodarczych. W rozprawie zweryfikowano hipotezę postępującego procesu ekonomizacji polityki bezpieczeństwa Niemiec. Pomimo, że w warstwie dyskursu najważniejsze pozostają interesy wynikające z wartości (chociaż doszło do pewnej aprecjacji interesów gospodarczych), to po pierwsze, obecnie działaniami Niemiec w sferze polityki bezpieczeństwa w większym stopniu kierują interesy gospodarcze niż te wynikające z wartości; po drugie, narzędzia polityki bezpieczeństwa są rozwijane i wykorzystywane stosownie do nowej hierarchii interesów.Praca odwołuje się do koncepcji mocarstwa cywilnego i prowadzonej przez nie polityki opartej na wartościach – Wertepolitik. Zidentyfikowano dwie grupy interesów polityki bezpieczeństwa, aby móc ustalić ich hierarchię. Jeśli chodzi o interesy o charakterze gospodarczym, były to: zapewnienie otwartego handlu, utrzymanie stabilności partnerów handlowych, bezpieczeństwo szlaków handlowych oraz zapewnienie bezpieczeństwa energetycznego. W opozycji do nich znalazły się cele Wertepolitik, utożsamiane z interesami wspólnoty międzynarodowej, opierające się przede wszystkim na uniwersalnych wartościach. Były to działania na rzecz: pokoju, demokratyzacji, praw człowieka oraz przestrzegania prawa międzynarodowego, a także model operowania: multilateralizm.W związku z budową hipotezy, wnioski z pracy zostały podzielone na dwie grupy: po pierwsze, te dotyczące deklarowanych priorytetów polityki bezpieczeństwa; po drugie – te, które odnoszą się do realizacji założeń.
Doctoral thesis “The Economisation of German Security Policy 1998-2013” concerns a number of problems. The focal question refers to the hierarchy of interests in German foreign and security policy – what are its priorities, how do they develop and what are their origins? What is the influence of internal and external factors shaping German security policy? What is the role of economy and international trade on the one side; values and norms stemming from experiences of the Second World War on the other? Were there any changes in this regard in the relevant timeframe?The author assumed that the peculiarity of German security policy until 1998 was the fact that its priorities stemmed from values and took the form of goals such as democratization, promotion of human rights and peace as well as strengthening international law and international institutions. German economic interests took second place in terms of actions, but first and foremost – in declarations.Starting with the formation of Gerhard Schröder’s government, a gradual change to the German security policy has occurred: economisation. For the purposes of this thesis, economisation is understood as a two-stage process. Firstly, due to economisation, there occurs a gradual appreciation of economic interests in foreign and security policies of states. Issues such as international trade, access to natural resources and the security of trade routes become priorities. If there is a collision between economic interests and other interests, like demonstrating solidarity with an ally or promoting human rights, the former are assured in the first place. The second aspect of economisation consist of shaping and using foreign and security policy tools in a way to ensure pursuing economic interests – most of all.In this thesis, the author verifies the hypothesis of gradual economisation of German foreign and security policy. Even though in the discourse the value-based interests remain the most important (although economic interests did gain more exposure), firstly – economic interests shape German security policy to a greater extent than value-based interests do; secondly – security policy tools are developed and used in accordance with the new hierarchy of interests.The thesis builds on the concept of civilian power and its value-based policy – Wertepolitik. Two groups of security policy interests were identified in order to analyze which were given priority. When it comes to economic interests, particular goals included: protecting free trade, ensuring stability of trade partners, ensuring security of trade routes and ensuring energy security. The second group consisted of the goals of Wertepolitik, associated the interests of the international community and based on universal values. They included: ensuring peace, democratization, promoting human rights and observing the norms of international law, as well as the operational model: multilateralism.Due to the wording of the hypothesis, the conclusions were divided into two groups. The first refers to the declared security policy priorities, the second – to the implementation of those declarations.

Abstract:
Burundi became a German protectorate in August 1884. Prior to the establishment of a protectorate, the territory was ruled by Mwamis (kings) who exercised a kind of quasi-divine system of administration. Conflictual relations were quickly dealt with within this complex structure. During the German and later Belgian colonial administrations, these political structures were redefined and a social class structure based on wealth was created. Forced class division became entrenched in the social fabric of Burundian society and the hierarchical system became even more prominent at independence in July 1962. Successive post-colonial regimes have failed to bridge the social gap. The International Community, through initiatives by the United Nations, the Africa Union, Jimmy Carter, Julius Nyerere and Nelson Mandela have attempted to resolve the political impasse. The dissertation is an attempt to reconstruct the causes of the various crises since 1962 and to reassess whether the various facilitators has succeeded in their tasks.

Abstract:
AbstractThe Dutch Republic underwent a process of state formation, accelerated economic growth and military reforms during the Eighty Years War. In particular between 1585 and 1621, Dutch merchant-entrepreneurs built up a burgeoning arms industry and sector of arms exports. These exports required a system of passports, still an under-researched theme in current literature, organized by the States-General and admiralties in order to support exports to neutral and allied states, but to forestall these did not fall into enemy hands. In particular, the system of passports shows how merchants, acting as intermediaries between allies and the States-General and the admiralties, could meet the volatile demand of war materials. As a result, the supply side of the export market was oligopolistic, but the composition of the group of oligopolists varied depending on the region and the prevailing market conditions in question. From this study it can be concluded that the system of export control had only a limited effectiveness regarding the creative arms exports to Spanish Habsburg destinations, due to divergent central and local interests. However, the major part of the Dutch arms exports flowed to allies such as France, Venice, Sweden and the German protestant states. Dutch merchants provided them with batches of strategic materials and total package-deals of armaments for entire army and navy units. From 1621, the States-General supported these transactions by supplying war materials from the state arsenals fostering timely and largescale deliveries, meeting volatile demand conditions.

Abstract:
AbstractThe history of Brescia (Latin Brixia), a city in northern Italy, is characterized by a long manufacturing tradition, in particular the crafting of steel weapons and armor. This was made possible thanks to the availability of iron ore, the great forests from which to obtain charcoal, the numerous streams used as the driving force for power hammers and forges, but most importantly the ingenuity and industry of the people. Beginning in the pre-Roman age, the skills of the masters and craftsmen steadily progressed over the centuries, until Brescia and its vicinity became one of the most important arms production centers in Europe between the sixteenth and eighteenth centuries. This paper presents an overview of the weapon manufacturing region of northern Italy, in particular Brescia. Moreover, a metallurgical study performed on an early seventeenth century north Italian “storta” sword has shed light on historical sword-smithing technologies and enabled us to discover the secrets behind the high-quality Italian weapons.

Abstract:
Abstract An open source research and vulnerability study of main battle tanks and their protections systems revealed that current anti-tank weapons may not be suited to defeat modern threats. One example is the novel T-14 tank being developed and tested in the Russian army with its combined hard-kill and soft-kill active protection system AFGANIT / SHTORA, its new reactive armor MALACHIT as well as improved multi-component passive armor. Additionally, modern active protection systems currently developed in, e.g., Israel, the United States, and Germany feature also multi-sensor and multi-effector systems with drastically improved detection and intercept ranges, short system reaction times as well as protection against multiple threats attacking simultaneously and / or from similar directions. While known effectors and concepts may overcome fielded active protections systems, they are probably not suited in defeating such modern and even future systems. Countermeasures relying on high engagement velocities through improved kinetic energy projectiles or hypervelocity penetrators may provide a potential solution. Another promising concept generates directed, far-distance electromagnetic effects defeating sensors and communications systems of modern main battle tanks. After such a mission kill, a following salvo attack through an anti-tank or modern multi-role weapon will eventually lead to a catastrophic kill. Feasibility studies of these mobile electromagnetic effectors have already shown their high potential.

Abstract:
The opening of combat arms positions to females, combined with innovative manufacturing processes allowing for increased curvature in rigid ballistic plates, allows the opportunity to design a body armor plate designed specifically for the female body. The current US body armor plates were developed from male torso shapes. This paper presents an iterative design and development process of female specific armor plates, based on the US Army anthropometric survey data (Gordon 2014) and rapid evaluation of prototyping designs.To understand the variation of female torso shapes, a female torso shape classification scheme was developed (Li, 2023), identifying nine torso groups for the US Army female population. For each shape group, a mean shape was generated from all torso surfaces within that group. Those nine torso shape groups were further categorized into three ‘curvature’ groups, based on angular measurement of the front profiles of each mean shape, as this will define the vertical curvature of a plate. Then two mean torso surfaces, a medium and a large bust shape were selected to target the prototype plate design for. Test plates were 3D printed but did not have equivalent weight as an ESAPI. Once the first plate shape was 3D printed, a design-fit evaluation-redesign cycle was initiated. A fit evaluation was performed to identify the design flaws. Then, those findings were documented and applied to the next round design, repeating this cycle four times. During each evaluation cycle, the current prototype, previous prototype versions, if applicable, and a 3D printed currently fielded plate were tested together. During the fit evaluation, the test participants’ (TPs) bra size was recorded but no measurements were taken. Based on TP’s bra size and prototype preferences, a fit table was created to correlate body size and bust shape to plate shape.The first round of fit evaluations involved the medium curvature plate and TPs (mostly with medium bust shapes). It was found that the TPs felt the top edge of the plate created pressure on the body, causing discomfort. We reduced the peak height of the prototyping plate by 20 mm to create the second iteration of the prototype. The second prototype was an improvement, however some could still feel the top edge of the plate. For the third iteration, the top and bottom plate edges were curved out to alleviate the pressure from the top edge, however, the fit test from this round indicated the curvature of the plate seems too flat. Hence the fourth prototype was developed by reducing the peak height only 10 mm from the first design with curved out edges on the top and bottom; it showed the best acceptability by all medium bust sized TPs. For future development, the accommodation envelope of the fourth iteration prototype will be evaluated so that we can delineate the anthropometric range of the central size in the target population, based on their breast size. Then, the large curvature plate will be evaluated to accommodate large breasted females (approximately 24% population according to the angular analysis of the front torso profile).

Abstract:
Introdução: A neoplasia intraepitelial vulvar (NIV) é caracterizada por alterações morfológicas nas células escamosas do epitélio vulvar, sendo classificada em três graus de acordo com sua extensão em profundidade: NIV 1, quando atinge até um terço da extensão epitelial; NIV 2, quando afeta entre um e dois terços; e NIV 3, chamado de carcinoma in situ, quando envolve mais de dois terços, acometendo todo o epitélio. Não existem sinais e sintomas característicos, logo o exame clínico da região vulvar é indispensável. A biópsia de lesões visíveis é imperativa em razão do elevado risco de progressão para o carcinoma vulvar. O tratamento abrange a excisão cirúrgica da lesão ou adestruição com laser. A incidência da NIV quase duplicou nas últimas duas décadas, passando de 1,2 a 2,1/100.000 mulheres-ano, podendo acometer qualquer idade. Relato de caso: M.R.S.S., 63 anos, foi encaminhada ao ambulatório de ginecologia pela presença de lesão vulvar há 10 anos. Em vulvoscopia, visualizou-se lesão leucoplásica em região inferior à fúrcula vaginal, próxima à transição com a mucosa. Realizou-se biópsia, cujo laudo histopatológico foi compatível com NIV III, associada a alterações citopáticas pela ação do papilomavírus humano (HPV); margens laterais livres, porém exíguas; margem profunda livre. Foi, então, feita a exérese total da lesão, com margem de segurança de 2 mm. A paciente segue em acompanhamento ambulatorial. Conclusão: A etiopatogenia da NIV pode ser viral e não viral. Quando acomete pacientes entre 35 e 55 anos, está mais frequentemente relacionada ao HPV. Em pacientes maiores de 55 anos, geralmente está associada a processo inflamatório crônico. A NIV tipo I corresponde em geral a reações inflamatórias do epitélio vulvar e ao condiloma aculminado. As NIV dos tipos II e III receberam novas classificações, sendo denominadas: do tipo usual (subdivididas em condilomatosa, basaloide e mista), geralmente associadas aos efeitos citopáticos pelo HPV; e do tipo diferenciada, associado a agressões inflamatórias crônicas. Há ainda as não classificadas. Os sintomas mais comuns são prurido, ardor vulvar e dispareunia superficial. Até 10% das pacientes são assintomáticas, porém as lesões são sempre identificáveis ao exame clínico. O aspecto macroscópico pode ser variado, mas sempre são lesões elevadas ou papulares, que podem ser hiperqueratósicas, ulceradas ou pigmentadas, localizando-se, preferencialmente, no epitélio desprovido de pelos, incluindo o clitóris e operíneo, mas que podem afetar qualquer parte da vulva. A biópsia deve ser efetuada em todas as lesões suspeitas. O tratamento da NIV II ou III deve ser individualizado e depende da idade da paciente e das características clínicas das lesões. A remoção cirúrgica é o método de escolha. Independentemente do método terapêutico, as taxas de recidiva são elevadas, sendo necessário o acompanhamento após o tratamento. As vacinas contra os tipos de HPV de alto risco prometem setornar armas poderosas na prevenção da doença.

Abstract:
Consistent, comprehensive data on international arms transfers enables the identification over time of trends in international arms transfers at the global, regional and national levels. There are several different methods for measuring international arms transfers. This Fact Sheet describes three sources of information for measuring international arms transfers: SIPRI’s measure of the volume of arms transfers; the financial value estimate of the United States Congressional Research Service (CRS); and national government data on the financial value of arms export agreements and deliveries. Using German arms exports in 2011 as a case study, it compares the methods used by SIPRI, the CRS and the German Government to measure German arms exports.

Abstract:
In order to prevent the diversion of exported military materiel, an increasing number of states have conducted post-shipment on-site inspections (i.e. physical inspections of exported military materiel on the territory of the importing state) or have introduced measures to allow for them to take place. Several multilateral instruments have produced guidance documents on arms export controls that include provisions relevant to requiring or conducting post-shipment on-site inspections and this topic has been one of the main focuses of the German presidency of the Eighth Conference of States Parties to the Arms Trade Treaty. This SIPRI Good Practice Guide is aimed at states that are in the process of developing post-shipment on-site inspections or are considering their future adoption. It highlights a series of good practices that states can apply when developing and implementing this tool and follows four steps that are part of a post-shipment on-site inspection process: (a) adopting on-site inspections, (b) requiring on-site inspections, (c) conducting on-site inspections, and (d) follow-on steps after on-site inspections. The Good Practice Guide draws from experience of states that have conducted post-shipment on-site inspections, relevant guidance and policy documents, and the work done by SIPRI on this topic.

Abstract:
The objective of the study is to outline the vision of the Russian-Ukrainian war in Renmin Ribao, the main newspaper of the People’s Republic of China. The source base of the research is the content of the Renmin Ribao website during 2022 in English, Spanish, French, Russian, German, Italian, and Portuguese languages. The material was selected using the keywords «Ukraine», «Russia» (and other derivatives), analyzed using induction, vocabulary analysis, classification analysis, and content analysis. Renmin Ribao rarely uses the term “war” to refer to events in Ukraine, resorting to streamlined formulations such as “situation”, “issue”, “crisis”, “conflict” and even “Russian military operation”. The newspaper sees the United States, not Russia, as responsible for the events in Ukraine. Rather, Moscow is a victim of many years of intrigues on the part of the United States, which manifested itself in efforts to restrain and weaken Russia, in particular with the help of Ukraine. The newspaper often reproduces Russian narratives and Russian fakes, disseminates messages typical of Russian propaganda (for example, about biological laboratories in Ukraine), reports on referendums in the occupied Ukrainian territories from the evidence of the Russian RT television channel, about the annexation of four Ukrainian regions from the testimony of Chairman State Duma Vyacheslav Volodin, about the attack on the Crimean bridge from the evidence of the FSB. Renmin Ribao is inclined to the opinion of the harmfulness of anti-Russian sanctions and the impracticality of supplying weapons to Ukraine, sees a priority way out of the Russian-Ukrainian war in an abstract “peace”, and not the victory of Ukraine. The issue in which Renmin Ribao sharply diverges from the position of official Moscow is the identification of the situation in Ukraine and the situation in Taiwan. Drawing parallels between Taiwan and Ukraine is popular in both the Russian and the Western press. However, when the war began to look less and less victorious for Russia, these parallels became unacceptable to both Renmin Ribao and official Beijing. Keywords: Russian-Ukrainian war, media of China, Renmin Ribao, anti-Russian sanctions, arms supply to Ukraine, Taiwan.
