Conventional wisdom has it that Beijing miscalculated by supporting Vladimir
Putin’s Ukraine war. Xi Jinping’s partner faces both unexpectedly fierce
resistance from the Ukrainian military and surprisingly strong Western

benefitted from the conflict, as Russia tests the international system with
disappointing results for the West.

True, Beijing is taken aback by Russian military failures. The war will surely
lead Mr. Xi to question his military’s ability to attack Taiwan. Yet Mr. Xi has
long heralded a new era in international relations that overturns the U.S.-made
world order. Mr. Putin signed on to this agenda in the Chinese-Russian Joint
Statement of Feb. 4. From Beijing’s perspective, a new international politics is
emerging.
