Russia opposes Taiwan’s independence in any form and considers the island an inseparable part of China, Russia’s Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said in remarks published on Sunday.
In an interview with Russia’s TASS state news agency, Lavrov also urged Japan to “think carefully” about what he described as a course towards militarisation".


Since you included the US, up until recently, the US made it clear it would defend Taiwan from a Chinese invasion. That has made a significant difference to China’s calculations about its own imperialism.
