Vladimir Putin has conceded that China has ‘concerns’ about the Ukraine war, during his face-to-face meeting with Xi Jinping

The world was watching as Russian leader Vladimir Putin and China’s Xi Jinping met face to face. The two authoritarian leaders have been brought together by their mutual feelings toward the west.

During his opening speech, Putin conceded that that China has concerns about the Ukraine war.

“We highly appreciate the balanced position of our Chinese friends in connection with the Ukrainian crisis. We understand your questions and concerns”
Vladimir Putin- Russian President

China has consistently refused to condemn Russia’s actions and has instead given unwavering economic and trade support, despite global condemnation.

China’s Xi assured Putin that he will “work with Russia to extend strong mutual support on each other’s core interests.”

He thanked Putin for his respect of the one-China policy, stressing Taiwan is a part of China.

At the White House, Pentagon Press Sec, John Kirby shrugged off any concerns about the meeting.

And instead, sent a firm message to China.

“Our message to China, I think, been consistent: that this is not the time for any kind of business as usual with Mr. Putin, given what he’s done inside Ukraine. This is not the time to be isolated from the rest of the international community, which has largely condemned what he’s doing in Ukraine and not only condemned it, but stepped up to help the Ukrainians defend themselves and their territorial integrity,”
John Kirby to CNN- National Security Council coordinator for strategic communications,

Movers were spotted clearing out the studio of Jimmy Kimmel Live, fuelling speculation about the future of the late-night program. The show was abruptly suspended after comments Kimmel made about murdered conservative activist Charlie Kirk.

CNN is reporting that ABC may reinstate Kimmel on air, but only if he “lowers the temperature” of his commentary. That condition has sparked debate about free speech, corporate influence and the fine line between humour and controversy in late-night television.
