  • China's Xi Jinping and Russia's Vladimir Putin on Thursday pledged a "new era" of partnership between the two most powerful rivals of the United States which they cast as an aggressive Cold War hegemony that was sowing chaos across the world. Xi greeted Putin on a red carpet outside the Great Hall of the People in Beijing, where they were greeted by marching People's Liberation Army soldiers, a 21-gun salute on Tiananmen Square and children waving the flags of China and Russia. China and Russia declared a "no limits" partnership in February 2022 when Putin visited Beijing just days before he sent tens of thousands of troops into Ukraine, triggering the deadliest land war in Europe since World War Two. As Putin and Xi pledge a new era and a united front against the US, FRANCE 24's François Picard is joined by Dr Natasha Kuhrt, Senior Lecturer in International Peace and Security in the Department of War Studies at King's College London.

      Russia has humiliated China for centuries till 2022.Although Putin now is the under dog.But Xi still can not get back an inch of his territory annexed by Russia in 19th century. All China , India ,Brazil .Argentina leaders after WW 2 like Mao,Ghandi, are idiotic and naive as they took side with Communist Russia to confront USA and Free world countries.Indian ,Brazil remains one of the poorest country in the world after 77 years gaining Independence ,but China has become the world 2nd biggest economy with Free world investment and high techies.If China takes side with USA and Free world countries to push Russia to collapse once again like USSR in 1991 They surely can get back theirr 1.7km2 territory annexed by Russian in 19th century peacefully like East Ẻuropean and Baltic countries after USSR disintergrated in 1991.

    • @user-se9uk2py5k
      @user-se9uk2py5k Před 20 dny +2

      US tariffs are because China subsidizes production of EVs, which is unfair competition and a form of dumping. To level the field the US can either impose tariffs or subsidize their own companies. So yes, it can be justified.
