If North Korea does start a war whose side will China and Russia be on?

Question

Both have supported North Korea in past conflicts. Do you think they will or would again?

Answer 1

in that event I would imagine china would go pound down the midget before he got to stupid and if that failed they would probably send in a little support but russia will send arms and keep their mouth shut. JMO

Answer 2

I believe that China has a "working relationship" with North Korea. but if NK decided to start being the bully, and decide to fire off something, like another user said, China may have a problem with it.

After all, China has an economic relationship with the U.S., along with several other countries. No one would be on NK's side, so I believe China would feel pressure of the greenback-kind to side with everybody else. I doubt China would be incredibly active, they would most likely just sit there and see what happens, but barring some strange events, I don't see China allying with NK against the rest of the world.

Answer 3

I don't think either Russia or China would take sides with US in a war with the North Korea. Neither country has anything to gain. I think they would remain neutral.

Answer 4

China would make damn sure a war never happened because they like North Korea as a 'buffer zone' from the USA.
But if push came to shove, China would just take over that country/war just to keep that buffer zone.

Answer 5

I don't know much about Russia.
I am not pretty sure what China will do, maybe China will just wait and see....
if china has to choose one side,that's maybe North Korea. Although most chinese people don't like north korea, china has to prevent N korea from invasion from other countries, just to protect china's own border.

OMG,I wish N korea didn't border china

Answer 6

China will never let the USA that close to its borders with troops. Russia will side with the USA. But it will never happen with ground troops anyways. It will be Nuclear and the beginning of WW3 ( which has actuallly already started ).

Answer 7

Russia - no
China has always fought against any power that attacked near it's border so I'd say it might be like the Korean war if we start to win they would. The use of nuclear weapons (and they would use them) might change things.

Answer 8

Russia will probably distance themselves from NK. China may support them, but only if they are attacked. If NK starts first, China may distance themselves as well.

Answer 9

Can't say about China but Russia is America's ***** now.
