"A Chinese specialist on Russia has delivered a grim forecast for Vladimir Putin's war in Ukraine: that it is doomed to fail.
Peking University professor Feng Yujun is also cooling on the future of Beijing-Moscow relations, writing in a recent op-ed in The Economist that the two nations have diverging visions of the future of global affairs.
Feng's assessment is a departure from the messaging of the Chinese government. Despite claiming to be neutral, Beijing has tacitly supported Moscow's war from the beginning, from opposing the West's retaliatory sanctions to banning criticism of Russia in Chinese social media.
Feng presented four major factors that he believes will "make Russia's eventual defeat inevitable."
