When the Russian oil refinery was bombed, the Chinese side received Putin's confidant, and there was a sentence that reassured the Russian side

On the geopolitical table, energy is Russia’s “cash flow” and “little treasury”.

Russian refinery exploded.

Since early August,Ukraine launched intensive drone attacks on more than 10 refineries and refineries in Russia.Among them, refineries in Volgograd, Novi Kuybyshevsk and other places were bombed and were directly suspended; the Ryazan refinery, which is responsible for providing fuel to the Moscow region, reduced production by half; factories such as Slavyansk and Afipsky were also forced to repair and shut down due to damage to their facilities.

According to Reuters statistics,The Ukrainian attack damaged at least 17% of Russia's refining capacity, what is this concept? A large piece of the "blood vessel" equivalent to domestic consumption and exports in Russia has been cut off.

In addition to the refinery, the Ukrainian army also attacked the Novatek gas treatment plant in Russia.This plant can process an average of 13 million tons of liquefied natural gas per year, and also produces large quantities of important chemical raw materials such as ethane and propane.It can be said to be the main artery of the Russian energy industry. It is obvious that the Ukrainian army is not only aiming at hollowing out Russia's small treasury this time, but also directly cutting off the "lifeline" of Russia's exports.

The result of the attack is also very obvious. Russia is currently at the peak of its energy demand, and the shutdown of a large number of refineries has directly caused it to be unable to meet its own needs.Domestic gasoline prices have soared by nearly 50%,There are people queuing up for refueling everywhere, and energy trade with other countries has almost stalled.

Russia's foreign energy trade has been hit.

We all know that energy exports are the main source of Russian fiscal revenue, even known as Putin’s “war treasury.”In particular, the oil trade between China and Russia is already under pressure due to the threat of U.S. sanctions. This time, oil exports are affected again. Russia will inevitably worry that China, a major customer, will be lost.

After the conflict, Russia's traditional energy market was almost entirely lost, and it was almost entirely up to China and India to undertake it. China, in particular, not only receives a large amount of Russian oil and gas, but also provides key trade channels and settlement support.If China reduces imports because of unstable supply, or adjusts the scale of cooperation because of price fluctuations, it will be a second blow to Russia.

In this context, the Russian side urgently needs a Chinese commitment, and the Chinese side’s response is also very decisive. Recently, the Chinese side met with President of the Russian State Duma Volokyn. When meeting with Volokyn, the Chinese side stated very clearly:China and Russia should continue their traditional friendship, deepen strategic mutual trust, strengthen exchanges and cooperation in various fields, and work together to safeguard the security and development interests of the two countries。”

President of the Russian State Duma

There are several key points in the phrase: “Continuing traditional friendship” demonstrates that China-Russia cooperation is not a temporary agreement, but rather a long-term strategy and deepening mutual trust” responds to Russia’s most concerned questions, indicating that China will not be isolated because of short-term difficulties.

To put it more bluntly, the meaning of China's remarks is clear:China will not be shaken by Russia's temporary difficulties in cooperation. The two sides are a community with a shared futureThis is reassuring enough for Russia.

And there is another interesting point. The large-scale sneak attack by the Ukrainian army on Russia comes at a time when the United States is vigorously promoting peace talks between Russia and Ukraine.Zelensky obviously wanted to demonstrate to the U.S. and even the international community that he has the ability to "react" through this operation, and thus earn money for himself at the negotiating table.

But this action will obviously further anger the palace, and it is also a blatant rebellion against Trump's "promotion of reconciliation", and it is not hard to predict that Trump's efforts to promote the Russian-Ukrainian peace talks may be all "swept."

But in any case, the bombing of the "small treasury" at present is really enough to make Russia overwhelmed, but the more crisis it is, the more it can highlight the weight of Sino-Russian relations. Soon after,Russian President Vladimir Putin will personally visit, and we will look forward to what kind of cooperation the two sides will.
