    Chinese diplomats seem of the position that they want nothing to do with wars, generally speaking. The closest thing to a military conflict they have brewing is territory disputes over Taiwan, an island that has been recognized as territory of the Chinese government for the better party of a century. Even then, a lot of the conflict appears to revolve around whether US warships can just cruise through the Taiwanese Straight on the theory that an independent Taiwan gave them permission to do so.

    Beijing has been far and away one of the most peaceful actors in global politics in living memory.
