“FReepCheck: FALSE. media says photo is from Dec. 6, 2023”
Go to the link you posted, below the photo, and see if you can find the following clue:
“Published 2:11 PM ET, November 30, 2018”
Or look inside the link itself, at the part which reads:
“2018/11/30”
P.S. That photo was from a G-20 meeting in Argentina.
Argentina is one of the 123 countries that Putin can no longer travel to, because of his ICC arrest warrant.
Times change.
‘My two cents, we will see”
I’ll add my two cents to that.
Look at the identified date and location of the picture I just posted.
Yes, Putin went to Saudi Arabia.
He needs the Saudis to cut their production (pay the bill), to drive oil prices higher. Also, Putin has accumulated a pile of Indian rupees that he needs to move into more usable currencies. Gulf Arabs are his best bet for being able to do that (at least a big chunk of it).
But Saudi Arabia paid the bill in 2023, and seem to be done doing that. They have been discussing adopting a strategy of opening the taps to shake out their competitors, which would crash Russia (they tried that against American shale oil producers a few years ago, but Russian production in deep Arctic is more vulnerable). MBS owns Putin. Xi owns Putin.
