China probably has more working nukes than Russia. Maintenance hasn’t been their strong suit, making them a liability. I wouldn’t be surprised if 9/10 aren’t working, or will malfunction on launch, causing Russia to nuke themselves, and the best part is they don’t even know which ones actually got maintained.
Not my call. If it was I would stop hacking the West, and start an organized campaign of their professional hackers to shut down Russian government servers, target the most recently made Russian nukes to destroy them with long range supersonic cruise missiles, send half my Chinese fleet to sink the Black Sea Fleet, and finally start my uncontested ground invasion. They could probably kill Putin in the process since I’m certain that Chinese Intelligence knows where he is, thereby ensuring enough Russian confusion that nukes will never be deployed. I may even ask the west to just kinda ignore the shit I’m about to do, but I don’t know how strong the Chinese and EU relations are.
Gotta get a lot of things absolutely right and I’m doubtful any military is gonna take a risk like that with a razor thin margin for error. Much better to probably wait until there’s civil unrest in Russia and move in to stabilize that region temporarily given the Han population in the region as your excuse. Then just never leave.
If someone has access to the missiles and wants to destroy the country the easiest way wouldn’t be to preventing them to launch. It would be making them explode without launching.

But, again, not my call.
