Commentary by Russian military journalist Boris Rozhin:
[ColonelCassad] Regarding the current picture.
A list of US actions aimed at discrediting and blurring Xi Jinping's visit to Russia.
1. Information campaign that Xi Jinping will not come.
2. Threats against China if Xi comes.
3. Requirements for China to condemn Russia.
4. Requirements for China not to supply weapons to Russia. Only the West has the right to supply weapons to Ukraine.
5. Statements that any Russian-Chinese agreements will not matter.
6. Hasty organization of the Japanese Prime Minister's visit to Ukraine on the day of Xi's visit.
7. The death of Chinese workers in the Central African Republic, in which they tried to blame Russia.
8. Announcement of hasty deliveries of new weapons to Ukraine, including shells with depleted uranium.
9. Declassified intelligence documents aimed at blaming China for the origin of the coronavirus.
10. We began to equip a new military base in the Philippines.
This is roughly the background they tried to sculpt for Xi Jinping's visit. It did not work out very well - it all looked like a tactical flicker against the background of tectonic processes.
A member of the Chinese delegation in Moscow said that Russia and China represent the Forces of Good.
Final dialogue.
Xi: Now there are changes that haven't happened in 100 years. When we are together, we drive this change
Putin: Agree
Xi: Take care, dear friend
Putin: Have a nice trip
More from Rozhin:
The collapse of attempts at economic and political isolation of Russia
[ColonelCassad] In general, according to the signed documents https://t.me/boris_rozhin/81016 and the joint statement https://t.me/boris_rozhin/81018 .
1. The interaction between the two countries is seriously deepening, although this is not a classic military-political bloc. Military cooperation was also discussed, but expectedly left behind the scenes.
2. China and Russia completely reject the outgoing world order and its main methodological doctrines. No one will return in 2021.
3. The level of economic, infrastructural, and logistical cooperation will be such that after the completion of the diversification of trade flows and the restructuring of exports, it will guarantee Russia for the next decade the absence of a serious threat of economic isolation.
4. China will not force anything on Russia in Ukraine. Moreover, Russia will support the Chinese course in the Pacific with respect to Taiwan, AUKUS, etc. The Chinese peace plan does not suit the West at all.
5. China will not succumb to American pressure. The visit to Moscow is a signal that China is counting on Russia in a long-term confrontation with the United States.
6. The multipolar world in the vision of Russia and China is a world of equal centers of power, and not a world of unilateral diktat. It is clear that the US will rise to the challenge and the war against Russia and China will continue to intensify. This is a battle for the future of the world order.
In general, the visit is very favorable for the Russian Federation - it actually buried the myths about the economic and political isolation of Russia. Hence the hysteria in the West - everyone understands that Akella missed.
