Russia itself is heading into the arms of China: can Xi Jinping “dump” Putin

US and Chinese leaders Joe Biden and Xi Jinping will meet on November 15 in San Francisco. You shouldn't expect anything grandiose from this meeting, but there is still hope.

Russian human rights activist Mark Feigin told Channel 24 about this, noting that people want to believe in some powerful results after Biden’s meeting with Xi. Especially against the backdrop of wars in Ukraine and the Middle East. But there is little hope for this.

Most likely, Xi will insist that Taiwan be given to him as a “sacrifice.” For this, China can do a lot, including influencing Putin. It is doubtful that the United States will agree to such a step.

I would say that if any problems begin to be resolved, it will be because of the agreements between Washington and Beijing. The two main players can fundamentally agree on something and find a balance of interests to achieve certain solutions. But, of course, I could be wrong. I understand people’s skepticism about this,” Feigin said.

Can China Dump Putin?

As Feigin assured, one should not exclude the possibility that China could abandon Putin. If you look at everything from an economic point of view, then 200 billion in trade turnover with Russia does not compare with the 750-800 that China has with the United States.

In addition, Xi now does not need to do anything at all to continue the slow expansion of Russia. Moscow itself is fleeing to China.

Moscow with all its resources and capabilities is running into the arms of Beijing. Russia has no options for global development that bypasses Beijing. And China has many options. He may quit, or he may not quit. Therefore, it is quite possible to imagine that Beijing will sacrifice a pawn for the sake of the king,” Feigin noted.

Meeting between Xi and Biden: briefly

  • It is known that Joe Biden and Xi Jinping will meet at the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation summit. It will take place in San Francisco. And the day before, Chinese Foreign Minister Wang traveled to the United States to organize a meeting.
  • The White House subsequently confirmed that a meeting between Biden and Xi would take place. The exact date is November 15th.
  • The head of China insisted that he was ready to cooperate with the United States. He is confident that this is of decisive importance for the whole world.
