Russia, China show off ties amid maneuvering over Ukraine
The Associated Press ^ | February 22, 2023

Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov, right, and the Chinese Communist Party's foreign policy chief Wang Yi enter a hall for their talks in Moscow, Russia, Wednesday.

The visit by Wang Yi, the Chinese Communist Party’s most senior foreign policy official, comes as the conflict in Ukraine continues to upend the global diplomatic order.

Wang held talks with Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov and met with President Vladimir Putin.

Speaking at the start of their talks, Lavrov noted that “our ties have continued to develop dynamically, and despite high turbulence in the global arena we have shown the readiness to speak in defense of each other’s interests.”

Wang responded in kind, underlining Beijing’s focus on deepening ties with Russia — a relationship it says has “no limits.”

Behold the new Moscow-Tehran-Beijing Axis of Evil, just like the old Berlin-Rome-Tokyo Axis.

The war needs to end now and would not be difficult to end it. If it is the stupid thing to do Joe e is doing it and of course the usual idiots an rino are in too. The war is preventing a recession so they will ride that. The opposite of what our leaders are doing is the correct path, however.

Correct. Russian just needs to stop attacking Ukraine and bring all its troops home. Putin could do that easily today.

Power. Control. Money.

We must get out of Ukraine but, unfortunately, they will double down for the above.

Plot twist: The Moscow-Tehran-Beijing Axis of Evil has been in place for years but most have been willfully blind to it.

Ok so China attacks Taiwan. The big scare will be its this WW3? I’d drop 2 bombs. One on both sides of the border where China and the Soviets skirmished.
