China hails 'rock solid' Russia friendship as top diplomat to meet with Putin

China's top diplomat has hailed his country's strong friendship with Russia as concerns remain over what role Beijing could play in the war in Ukraine. Wang Yi was on a visit to Russia when he said the countries will reach a “new consensus" on advancing their relationship.

He said: “Today I am willing to further exchange views with you, my old friend, on the advancement of our mutual relationship, and I think we will definitely reach new consensus.

“No matter how the international situation changes, China has been and remains willing to maintain the positive trend with Russia in building a new type of cooperative relationship between major powers.”

Wang also told Nikolai Patrushev, the head of Russia’s Security Council and one of Vladimir Putin’s closest allies, that Beijing’s ties with Moscow are “solid as a rock.”

Wang continued: “Sino-Russian relations are mature and solid as a rock, and will withstand the test of the changing international situation.

“We are ready, together with the Russian side, in accordance with top-level agreements, to resolutely defend national interests and dignity, and promote mutually beneficial cooperation in all areas."

In response, Patrushev said Russia and China can become strong allies against pressure from the West.

Damn, I wish we had a stand alone, treaty organization destroying proxy like Xi has! Instead we get stuck with a deadbeat, corrupt, Nazi employee of Biden/DC, Inc. who is draining us dry.

Friendship now, takeover later.

Putin is not so smart.

China is using Putin as a tool for advancing their own goal of domination of the world.

China wants Putin to do most of the work in Europe, while at the same time, depleting the Russian stockpile of arms, thereby making it easier to take over parts of Russia and eventually all of Russia.

WWIII is already here, though not as hot as it will get later.

So be it. It is time to add China to the sanctions list and revoke their normalized trading status.

While Putin continues to sell his crappy Russian crude oil to Xi for a 30% discount.

Why are still trading/buying with China?
Why are we still allowing the Chinese to own American businesses and land? (if it was Nazi Germany those properties would have long been seized under the enemy act)

Stolen elections have their consequences. Fox News was a collaborator in The Steal. They need to be added to list of those who helped make this all possible.

Biden gave Putin the green light to invade Ukraine in a “minor incursion”. And Putin and his crappy military screwed up the deal.

And the Biden family took more bribes from the Moscow mayor’s wife than from Burisma. Not to mention all the free Russian hookers for Hunter.

“and all the dollar stores go belly-up”

Genesis 25:

Esau Sells His Birthright

One day, while Jacob was cooking some stew, Esau came in from the field and was famished. He said to Jacob, “Let me eat some of that red stew, for I am famished.” (That is why he was also called Edom)

“First sell me your birthright,” Jacob replied.

“Look,” said Esau, “I am about to die, so what good is a birthright to me?”

“Swear to me first,” Jacob said.

So Esau swore to Jacob and sold him the birthright. Then Jacob gave some bread and lentil stew to Esau, who ate and drank and then got up and went away. Thus Esau despised his birthright.

I am all for sanctioning China a reshoring industry back to America. It would be devastating to the business model of Big Pharma which manufactures most drugs and antibiotics overseas.

Amen. While we’re at it we could also add India to the list until such time they stop calling us ten times a day trying to sell car warranties!

:-P

Oil is oil though it may have different grades all oil is still valuable. Your "Muh Russia" delusion is rendering you reactive and foolish. India and China are happily reselling Russian oil to America and the Eurotrash for a tidy profit so the sanctions are only a minor impediment that hurts Europe far more than it does Russia.

Marcusmaximus agrees with:

The New York Times
The Washington Post
NPR
CNN
MSNBC
Pedo Biden
McConnell
Dead McCain
Linda Graham

He’s also a hater of President Trump which tells you all that you need to know.
