China's Cautious Stance on Russia and North Korea

China maintains caution amidst Russia and North Korea's growing alignment, expressing concern about potential trilateral axis formation and regional stability. Beijing aims to improve relations with US, Japan, and South Korea while being careful not to engage in 'bloc-building'. The situation has escalated due to North Korea's missile launches and increased military activities, leading to US and South Korean concerns. China's reluctance to condemn North Korea's military developments and its call for a 'dual suspension' approach to denuclearization have further complicated the situation.
