Flanked by Russia's Vladimir Putin and North Korea's Kim Jong Un, a smiling Xi strolled up a red carpet to take his seat for the lavish event at Tiananmen Square to mark 80 years since Japan's defeat at the end of World War Two.

Don't go posting pictures of Trump's words to ME - I fought hard for Trump in the FR primary wars of 2015-2016, before trolling on FR was even a gleam in your troll eye.

Stop pimping for China, Mao. America defeated Japan. Live with it.
Honestly, this is pathetic. Reminds of of the kind of empty crap they staged when Yuri Andropov and Konstanin Chernenko were Chairmen.
