China has aligned with Russia over its security concerns in Eastern Europe, but has not been directly supportive of Vladimir Putin’s offensive—at least not in public. The conflict trapped some 6,000 Chinese nationals in Ukraine’s major cities. A failure to anticipate either the likelihood or trajectory of the war meant it only began evacuating the first of its citizens and diplomatic staff on Monday, five days after the hostilities began....

I like the Compass’s trailblazing style: gauge surrounds that look like compass dials, clean modern graphics and a squared-off boxy design on the dashboard. As for performance, the Compass is equipped two ways: a standard front-wheel-drive version or a four-wheel-drive for superior grip on wet, snowy or even sandy roads.
