Xi Jinping visited a number of European countries yesterday. China has a plan for Europe and uses Russia in particular for this purpose.

First of all, Beijing wants to separate Europe from the United States. This opinion 24 Channel was expressed by political scientist Oleg Lesnoy, explaining that the visits to Europe were aimed at showing European countries supposedly “to be better with China.” < /p>

What Beijing is up to

So China wants the United States to be left without allies. And also, with the help of Russia, to make provocations against NATO, the USA and their satellites and show that these structures are not effective. But China supposedly offers peace, predictability and lucrative contracts.

Now China is playing in this situation: it let Russia in, it got in, and Beijing views it as a lab rat. Then he looks at where this “rat” is successful and writes it down in his notebook, dictating energy prices to Russia, weakening it and the West in this confrontation. Therefore, China has a lot of benefits here; it wants to demonstrate outwardly that it is for peace, but in reality it is preparing for a long, tough confrontation with the United States, first of all,” the political scientist noted.

Beijing strives to fight for world “reign” and, in general, to achieve “first place.” At the same time, China is a very closed country and it is difficult to draw conclusions about its true goals and capabilities. In addition, there is another important point – the dependence of the Chinese economy on the USA and Europe, and it is much greater than on Russia.
