俄罗斯是中国的朋友，新时代的全面战略协作伙伴，对此无需怀疑。俄乌战争给中国也带来了麻烦，这么大的地缘政治冲突，各方都有损失，中国的损失是相对小的。    WASHINGTON -- An Army private who fled to North Korea before being returned home to the United States last month has been detained by the U.S. military, two officials said Thursday night, and is facing charges including desertion and possessing sexual images of a child.The eight counts against Pvt. Travis King are detailed in a charging document seen by The Associated Press. The officials who confirmed King's confinement spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the charges have not been publicly announced.King's mother, Claudine Gates, said in a statement that she loved her son “unconditionally” and was “extremely concerned about his mental health.”“As his mother, I ask that my son be afforded the presumption of innocence,” she said.Desertion is a very serious charge and can result in imprisonment for as much as three years. King is also accused of kicking and punching other officers last year, unlawfully possessing alcohol, making a false statement and possessing a video of a child engaged in sexual activity. That allegation dates to July 10, the same day he was released from a South Korean prison where he had served nearly two months on assault charges.One week later, King, 23, ran across the heavily fortified border from South Korea and became the first American detained in North Korea in nearly five years. He was set to be sent to Fort Bliss, Texas, where he could have faced potential additional disciplinary actions and discharge.Officials said King was taken to the airport and escorted as far as customs. But instead of getting on the plane, he left and later joined a civilian tour of the Korean border village of Panmunjom. He ran across the border, which is lined with guards and often crowded with tourists, in the afternoon. After about two months, Pyongyang abruptly announced that it would expel him. He was flown on Sept. 28 to an Air Force base in Texas.His release from North Korea was aided by Swedish officials who took King to the Chinese border, where he was met by U.S. Ambassador to China Nicholas Burns, the Swedish ambassador to China and at least one U.S. Defense Department official. He was then flown to a U.S. military base in South Korea before heading to the U.S.Once back in the U.S., King was taken to Brooke Army Medical Center at Fort Sam Houston outside San Antonio. He went through what the military describes as a “reintegration” process that included medical exams, psychological assessments and debriefings. And he was also allowed to meet with family.Because he had willingly run into enemy hands, he legally was kept in military custody throughout that process.At the time, officials said they did not know exactly why North Korea decided to let King go, but suspected Pyongyang determined that as a low-ranking serviceman he had no real value in terms of either leverage or information. King joined the Army in January 2021, and served as a cavalry scout.While he was gone, Army leaders declared him absent without leave, opting to not consider him a deserter, which is far more serious. By declaring King a deserter, the Army would have to conclude that King left and intended to stay away permanently. In times of war, desertion can carry the death penalty.Service members can go AWOL for several days, but may return voluntarily. The punishment can include confinement in the brig, forfeiture of pay or dishonorable discharge and it is largely based on how long they were away and whether they were apprehended or returned on their own.The charging document does not provide significant detail on any of the allegations, though it does accuse King of knowingly possessing a video of a child engaging in sexual conduct last July 10 and says that he solicited a user of Snapchat, a social media platform, to produce images of underage sexual activity.Sean Timmons, an attorney who specializes in military law at the Tully Rinckey law firm and who reviewed the charging document, said all the transactions that occurred on Snapchat were not secure or private and were accessible by the government. “He probably reasonably believed his illegal conduct would have no evidentiary trail, but Snapchat actually saves everything,” Timmons said.___Associated Press writer Tara Copp in Washington contributed to this report.。▲2023年2月24日，中国发布了《关于政治解决乌克兰危机的中国立场》。提出尊重各国主权、摒弃冷战思维、停火止战、启动和谈等12点主张。中国推动乌克兰危机政治解决的努力，得到了俄乌双方的欢迎和国际社会的认可。俄乌战争一定程度上拖累了中国与美西方的关系，但这是中国能够把控的，因为美西方这个时候非常需要稳定中国的态度。他们的目标上限是让中国尽量靠近他们的立场，但他们必须守住目标的下限，那就是不与中国闹翻，把中国逼向相反的方向。所以说，中国的中立是他们应当也必须接受的。一些人强调俄罗斯在历史上伤害过中国，所以中国应当做美国的朋友。这太幼稚、简单了。此一时彼一时，今天对中国全面战略打压的是美国，在新疆、西藏、香港等问题上搞中国的是美国，给台湾民进党当局撑腰、阻止中国统一的是美国，在国际上构建反华同盟，并且有野心将中国科技发展打压下去的同样是美国。而且美国这样做的第一大原因是中国力量全面崛起了，中国怎么处理与美国的分歧，包括我们怎么对待俄罗斯，都是第二位第三位的。中美关系不可能以中方损害同俄罗斯的关系得到根本改观，中美战略僵持已经注定，而中国与俄罗斯构建新时代全面战略协作伙伴关系，有助于我们同美国长期博弈，不让中美关系走向最糟，能过得去。

B | ▲中俄务实合作成就斐然，中国连续13年成为俄罗斯最大的贸易伙伴，2023年双方贸易额达到创纪录的2400亿美元。俄方表示，2030年中俄贸易有望达到3000亿美元。两国互利合作有着强大韧性和广阔前景。换句话说，中国因为俄罗斯有过历史悲剧，但美国在制造我们的现实威胁，是中国当前和可预见未来的地缘政治紧迫项。今天中俄做全面战略协作伙伴，这是时代大变局决定的，不以一些浪漫主义的想法为转移。当然了，中俄关系不能造成中国与其他国家、包括同西方关系的排他性。事实上，中国一直在努力实现外交战略的平衡。中德、中法之间都刚刚实现了领导人的访问，中美今年的高层接触很活跃，日本、韩国、澳大利亚都在与中国保持交往。中国在世界上没有一个传统意义上的敌人，但是美国有多个。中国称得上是历史上崛起速度最猛、姿态最温和、最强调与所有国家合作的大国。我们要自信，要保持自己的路线和节奏，不能在外部压力下自乱阵脚。
