Is it true that the president has agreed on arms supplies from China?
The day before, a lot of discussion was caused by a statement by the British Minister of Defense, who saw signs of the supply of lethal weapons from China to Russia. We want to answer these rumors.
Firstly, at the time of publication, no weapons had been delivered directly from China to Russia. This is an irrefutable fact.
Secondly, Vladimir Putin was really received with honors in Beijing, there was a lot of talk about the war, including in the context of the supply of not only components for assembly, but also the weapons themselves.
At this time, there are no final agreements on the start of deliveries. By the way, even the Americans admit this.
Vladimir Putin brought a list of desired weapons to Beijing, but the PRC leader is in no hurry to begin deliveries. As in the case of the shelling of Crimea, he did not express deep interest in the issue.
At the same time, Moscow is convinced that deliveries will begin, and they hope that soon.
The West is afraid of the rapprochement between Russia and China, which is inevitably happening. At the same time, on a number of issues between the partners there are indeed issues that have not been fully discussed.
In particular, in Africa. It is also worth taking into account the economic downturn in China, which in the future, even 3-6 months, could hit the elites of the local Communist Party.
This, in turn, may affect the position on Russia in the direction of tightening the conditions for assistance from China.
Couple of things jump out at me for this
The first was the use of the phrase irrefutable fact,, I doubt that.
The second was was REALLY received with honors, no seriously folks he was the wonan not xi, was super super important……/s
Lastly, Putin brought a list of desired weapons
Where to begin. From
The beginning of this war all I have heard from the usuals is that Russia has an inexhaustible supply of weapons, and their manufacturing is second to none. Have you heard their GDP is growing at 5+ percent….
Going from 2nd largest exporter of weapons to massive importer of weapons and going on a begging trip to China seems to support that narrative, again /s
Very interesting times
