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.
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.
