So how big is Chinas desire to present itself as peacemaker to the world? Would Ukraine accept 2021 boarders and no NATO? Could China force Russia to concede that? I don’t think that Ukraine accepts anything less than 2021 boarders. But that would be a pretty big loss for Russia to swallow.

When you say 2021 borders, do you mean Russia keeps Crimea? Donetsk and Luhansk were rebel held since about 2015. So do you include those regions?
I think Ukraine wants 1992 borders and nothing less.
