Chinese leader Xi Jinping landed in Russia on Monday for a much-anticipated three-day state visit, taking a joint stand with President Vladimir Putin against the West even as the Russian leader stands accused by the International Criminal Court of war crimes in Ukraine.
The two men, each positioned as “leader for life” of a nuclear power, celebrated their “no limits” relationship in Beijing together in early 2022, just weeks before Putin ordered his full-scale invasion of Ukraine, and they have met about 40 times. But Monday’s visit, the first by Xi since the invasion, represents a display of tacit support by China for the war and a personal triumph for Putin, who is eager to show he is not isolated on the international stage.
Xi’s plane arrived at Vnukovo International Airport just southwest of the Russian capital at approximately 1 p.m. local time Monday. The presidential motorcade then made its way to the center of Moscow, where dozens of people waving Chinese and Russian flags greeted the delegation outside his hotel, the Soluxe Hotel in the north of the city.

They see the rank stupidity at the helm
I do know what it will look like. Factories all over the US will hire people and start making things again.
And about 200 million Chinese will be unemployed asking why should they have to starve so Putin can have Ukraine.
Everyone on this page already agrees that we need to manufacture our own things and stop relying on China. But, to respond to their meeting by saying ‘it’s time to end trade with China’ sounds like a reaction by ending trade now. … Which would put us in the dark ages. We did it to ourselves As Trump was trying to do - bring manufacturing back - is going to take a long time. This admin has had such knee jerk reactions that it sounds like something they would actually threaten to do. While possible one day, sanctions may be placed on us and it won’t be pretty.
The Suicide Sanctions pushed Russia into China’s dark embrace.
That is bad news for Russia, which is now one step closer to becoming the property of China.
It is bad news for Western countries, who are damaging their own economies.
—> That is bad news for Russia,
Disagree, but that’s ok!
Globalists in the Republican Party object to sourcing materials and manufacturing to America First because doing so would displease their corporate masters.
China and Russia are already partners in BRICS.
China owns most of the US politicians, a lot of the ag industry, and a good chunk of the higher education.
Sure. Kick them out.
It would only take a revolution to do it.

Pooh and Pooh-tinplate.
лізь не в свою справу.
Remember the good old days, under Trump, when we were constantly on the verge of World War III with China and Russia, getting stronger by the day?
Interesting. Thanks.
I don’t understand Russian.
Bo Bo is a Chicom shill.
I am anti-communist - just reporting on the change that they (Chicoms) recently announced (just last week) - that their official maps would begin renaming Vladivostok and Sakhalin with their old Chinese names.
It’s Ukrainian - smh
You are correct, ... unfortunately.
“I don’t understand Russian.”
That’s OK as long as you understand Chinese.
