Thanks for the video! I wanted to point out some translations that could be better: 1:05 "I personally think the invasion is quite extreme" should be "I personally think the word 'invasion' is too extreme" 5:10 "We shouldn't step in because this is Ukraine's issue" should be "We shouldn't step in because Ukraine is the one who provoked Russia" 14:36 "First of all, the US has Taiwan's back..." should be "First of all, Taiwan's boss, the US, won't agree to it" edit: adding 6:15 "We won't abandon the situation either" should be "we also won't send weapons to (either Ukraine or Russia)" from user Rhapsody in comments

Thanks. Precision in language (native language or translation) is very important.

Really disappointed with the quality of the translation. It's not just very loosely translated. Some sentences are barely related to the original or even mean the opposite. Here's a few examples of what the correct translation should be. Please judge for yourselves. 1:06 Personally, I think it might be too harsh to describe it as an "invasion". 4:08 dispatched their armed forces 4:23 They aimed their guns and missiles at Russia's door 4:53 (second sentence) if we can sign a treaty then we'll try not to resort to violence. 5:06-5:20 We shouldn't step in because Ukraine provoked the situation in the first place. Russia has been provoked, but it has not been invaded. 5:53 but we can urge them to stop or share our views. 6:15 We won't send weapons to the battlefield (meaning they won't contribute to the war) 8:19 blatantly (not blindly) 9:02 to tackle intense situations 12:20 I hope that the US can stop meddling in issues like this in the future so that there can be world peace. 15:18 The US benefits from our conflict. (Literally: The US is watching the tigers fight（观虎）. The Chinese saying 坐山观虎斗 "sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight" means to watch in safety whilst others fight then reap the rewards when both sides are exhausted) 16:45 no family can bear the pain of losing a loved one.

Besides if the US invaded Mexico, because Mexico was seeking safety in Russia, then I would stand with Mexico. So no I wouldn't feel the same way as the old man. Also the US didn't threaten to weaponize Ukraine! Remember that Russia started the war, even before Ukraine wanting to join NATO.. they started to bully Ukraine from the time of Crimea. And NATO isn't an offensive alliance, it's a defensive one. And they wouldn't originally accept Ukraine because it wasn't democratic and was too corrupt but it's just sad. And if Russia is making all those around it afraid of it, how is it the fault of those countries? And they were right. Look at Ukraine now, it's already being invaded despite Putin lying a week ago, saying he wouldn't invade.

So yeah it won’t be easy spotting overt words that reveal their thoughts on the invasion. You’ll have to interpret their words and position. They say they support territorial sovereignty, in which case it’s Russia violating that. They also see themselves in Ukraine’s position and the USA as Russia using a BS genocide (against Uyghurs or ethnic Russians) as the excuse to invade. In private I’ve heard people in CPC I know saying this invasion is a disaster (that being said the CPC is almost 100 million people, practically everyone is in or knows someone in the CPC so it’s not like it’s a monolith with one single opinion).

I love how Chinese view America as the ones provoking the situation. Countries like Ukraine, Kosovo, and Georgie have been begging Europe to join the EU and Nato. Its hilarious seeing the authoriatarian bootlickers try to blame other countries for fuckups. America is retarded, but at the very least had a coherent justification behind its invasion of Iraq and Afghanistan. China seemed to want to invade Tibet, because apparently to free tibetan slaves, "Glorious mao zedong must arise from the heaven" and become the new tibetan slave masters. I used to be partial towards these types of politics, but after Ukraine, im in genuine disbeleif, over how China, a nation I thought atleast had good leaders now, would even support Russia after what they did. America may be incompetent, but atleast the Americans arent bootlickers. Jesus christ.

One thing should be added, most people I found online don't think China and Russia are ally. Because China pursue a no ally policy, meaning we don't have any ally, only partner or closed relationship from common interests, and most Chinese believe the famous Churchill's saying:"no lasting friends, no lasting enemies, only lasting interests." We don't take responsibility for other country's action or its own threat.We don't take actions or solid stand until our own safety and interests is threaten.

I'm very impressed with the candor in the participants answers, and there more sophisticated informed and educated thoughtful responses. There is a similar You Tube site operated in Russia where a street interviewer asks or tries to ask similar lines of questions.

I see a great deal more reflection here of inaccurate information being fed to the Chinese people, following the ruzzian nonsense about how they were somehow "forced" to invade Ukraine because there was a chance that some day Ukraine might join NATO. The ONLY reason why ANY eastern European nations have wanted to join NATO since being liberated from the Soviet yoke in 1989-91 is ruzzia's 400 year long history of brutal, aggressive, aggrandizing and sometimes genocidal wars against its neighbors. If ruzzia wanted to keep Ukraine out of NATO, all it had to do was become a halfway decent neighbor.

Chinese official media do not report much on negative news about the world, but prefer to cover interesting events and technological developments in various countries. Would you be surprised. This is a fact. But another fact is that media in democratic countries are very enthusiastic about reporting negative news about China, sometimes even deliberately exaggerating or creating stories based on pictures. In the era of self media, many bad things in the world are learned by Chinese people through self media. We have many overseas students and business people who spread information to social networks in China. It may be related to culture. Usually, Chinese people educate their children by instilling a beautiful side of the world in them. We believe that this way, children will grow into upright and responsible individuals. I think the country is also based on this consideration. If we instill in other countries how bad it is for a long time, it will cultivate a large amount of populism. Chinese media usually choose to report on bad things happening in the world in a balanced manner. If it concerns our country, it will let citizens know what is happening in the world that harms our interests. However, they will not attempt to exaggerate the facts and fabricate news content to provoke public emotions and incite Chinese people to hate which country. Chinese official media reports on foreign-related news usually follow a Chinese proverb "点到为止."（I find it difficult to describe this word in English.） At the same time, American politicians, propaganda machines, constantly sow the seeds of hatred towards China in the hearts of Americans. The media in the United States are more inclined to incite than those in China. Based on these, many Chinese people are actually very dissatisfied with our country's media. Everyone has learned from self media how Western big media smear our country, so they are very dissatisfied with the lack of equal combat effectiveness of our official media.

Thanks for sharing these opinions

Here is the underestimated thing. You see a lot of Chinese comments supporting Russia, don't take it serious, cause we got fking 1.4 billion ppl. And you see a ton of Chinese comments supporting Ukraine, don't take it serious either, cause we got fking 1.4 billion ppl LOL. The similarities are in every field, like food, politicians, cars, nations whatever u name it. It's just so hard to describe China, so freaking big, and complex.

Good interview and it does represent the general sentiment in China. A few interesting observation to share: 1) Chinese can generally relate to Putin's decision for war and still generally support russia, but they are also symphathetic to Ukrainian citizen (notice none have said much about Ukrainian gov) and is against war. Some Chinese (the minority) stand on the side of Ukraine more than russia. 2) They think that China should not intervene. 3) Most of them blames NATO and US more. 4) The girl refers to Xi as winnie the pooh and gets away with it. This debunks the idea that winnie the pooh is a forbidden subject in China. No secret police is going to go after you if you say Xi is like winnie the pooh. 5) One guy wish that China will have leader like putin and says it will be interesting. He is not alone and many people in China feels that Chinese gov is too soft on some issues. If China is a liberal "democracy", then there will be war already in Taiwan and South China Sea.

Wow, i dont know where to start, so first of all: thank you so much from the bottom of my heart for your great Work and for giving me the possibility to listen to chinese people from the Streets of every day life. I hope so much this video is authentic and not a staged theater. Nowadays i really dont know so well what i can belive or not. All the people who have spoken have a diferent opinion and in my opinion all of them are right in some way. Me personally i wish for peace for all humanity. additionaly without any superpowers that are acting like some sort of police. Of course this is a very naive thought. i can see that there are so many different needs and perspectives. it is not possible for all the wishes to come true. I hope so much for a fair play in a very childish naive way. Also i hope that many more people grow mentahlly and spiritually so that we can see each other as brothers and sistern of different mothers. This way we do not need any boarders any more. Here where i live, in this video you call it the west, i see and hear many people who have the exact same feelinge, fears, hopes and wishes as the people in your video. Of course this is just an example of the many different points of view that exist on our planet. Our home. our only home in the Galaxy. I dream about and wish for enought strength of the humans of this planet to hold togeather as one big family. and that the strong people hold and suport the not so ready ones. to take them with us on this journey that we call life with the goal of becoming truly concious and aware about ourselves as human beings. Many bad things have been done by humans to other humans. the truly strong human is forgiving. And i hope and i dream that there will be no beeings that interfear in a negative way to stop this process of growing togeather. Of course it is ALL so extremly complicated. I know for sure we have the power to overcome the childhood and the adolescence of humanity and can become grownup humans in a concious way of existence, without further hurting each other. Time will heal all wounds and love will protect us and nurish this process. Thank you so much for your work. I hope to see many more other people from all over this planet and be able to listen to theire thoughts. It is like a symphony. We will overcome the complications. the complications will not dissapeat but we will find a way to deal with them in peace and harmony. peace out, your Brother from annother mother you give me more hope with your work, thank you

Within Russia, the people supporting the war are one's who rely on the state media. Even in this case, it's divided along generational lines as younger people are more likely to rely on media from the internet rather than the state. It's the same thing outside of Russia and the west. People who rely on media outside of the confines of the state, will always have a broader view. And it's obviously younger people who are more likely to do this. It has less to do with how much politics you pay attention to and more about what types of media you are consuming.

The unfortunate thing is that it is never about good and bad in politics. It is always about business! All politicians over the world show the same mindset. It's all about money and business and it doesn't matter how they can get what they want. The only thing that matters to them is that they get it. It's everywhere in the world like that. Instead of live and let live and respect this kind of mindset there are always many that don't want it that way.

@@Orwellian-Purple-Grapes-1984 "Orwellian" is the right descriptor for you where you engage in "Newspeak."The USA is not "belligerent" at all. On the contrary, US administrations from Clinton to Obama and Biden have all been very naive when it comes to Ruzzia's imperialistic plans. Was it the US that seized the Crimean Parliament and forced them, at gun point, to "vote" to return to Ruzzia? Was it the US that sent disguised soldiers into Donbas to create a fake civil war? Did the US pour thousands of troops into Russia from Ukraine or anywhere else?

Despite how the Western media portraying China as a place with absolutely no freedom, these ordinary folks speak no different than anyone on the streets in the West. I would even go on and say they sound more educated than what I would expect to see on average. Good job China, US has a lot to learn from

Thank you for this video! Very nice to hear from the ordinary Chinese person as well! Much respect!

The level of understanding regarding the issue reveals the Chinese people are a testament that the Chinese government isn't bombarding their people with propaganda. They are a very thoughtful people. I would love to hear the answers of these same questions asked of US citizens.

It is a rather complicated story. In current Chinese values, It is more important to have a united opinion (to survive) than have critical thinking(freedom). So if the Chinese government has a public and official opinion, most Chinese will unconsciously follow it without the need for propaganda, attack all who have an odd opinion, and blame them as betrayers. However, right now the government is as confused and nervous as the western world. So it does not provide any strong opinion officially to the people, only vague, neutral even fence-sitting declarations. China needs Russia as an ally but does not want to be dragged into a war. And China also starts to recall the bad memory about Russia (Guess what country took most territory from China in history)

Like Russia, China has been under US sanctions for a long time, so it is understandable that they and Russia would help each other. The US should be thankful that the Chinese love peace or it would be facing two nuclear weapons states at the same time.

Thank you Asian Boss for helping spread empathy and understanding. A lot of people on both sides need it these days. As an American living in Norway, I gotta say - though we westerners and our Chinese/Russian brothers and sisters don’t agree on much it’s comforting to know we can all come together and acknowledge that world war 3 should not (and god willing will not) happen. Here’s hoping we can resolve our issues calmly and one day maybe - just maybe - live in true peace without animosity.

"AustinCMN vor 5 Tagen Really disappointed with the quality of the translation. It's not just very loosely translated. Some sentences are barely related to the original or even mean the opposite. Here's a few examples of what the correct translation should be. Please judge for yourselves. 1:06 Personally, I think it might be too harsh to describe it as an "invasion". 4:08 dispatched their armed forces 4:23 They aimed their guns and missiles at Russia's door 4:53 (second sentence) if we can sign a treaty then we'll try not to resort to violence. 5:06-5:20 We shouldn't step in because Ukraine provoked the situation in the first place. Russia has been provoked, but it has not been invaded. 5:53 but we can urge them to stop or share our views. 6:15 We won't send weapons to the battlefield (meaning they won't contribute to the war) 8:19 blatantly (not blindly) 9:02 to tackle intense situations 12:20 I hope that the US can stop meddling in issues like this in the future so that there can be world peace. 15:18 The US benefits from our conflict. (Literally: The US is watching the tigers fight（观虎）. The Chinese saying 坐山观虎斗 "sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight" means to watch in safety whilst others fight then reap the rewards when both sides are exhausted) 16:45 no family can bear the pain of losing a loved one."
