Beijing will be trading and purchasing energy from Moscow

President Xi Jinping traveled from China to Moscow to meet with Russian President Vladimir Putin for a three-day summit.

The historic meeting between the two major powers showed off their ever-growing alliance as they plot against the West.

During a second round of talks, Russia and China made pledges of strategic support as officials say it appears that China will undermine Western sanctions and break down Russia’s isolation by trading and purchasing energy from Russia.

Meanwhile, U.S. President Joe Biden has come under fire for not responding with tough talk.

The China-Russia Summit comes after an arrest warrant was issued for Putin from the ICC for war crime charges.

White House officials say they are still working on arranging a call between Biden and Xi.

Republican Kevin McCarthy the top elected Republican in the U.S. is comparing this moment right now to the days before World War II.

So far, Congress has directed about $113 billion in financial, humanitarian, and military aid to Ukraine.

But, as the conflict enters its second year and with no end in sight lawmakers on Capitol Hill say they simply cannot continue to write blank checks and are demanding transparency and accountability.
