The Kremlin's reaction to the meeting between Biden and Xi Jinping / GettyImages, collage 24 Channel Xi Jinping arrived in the United States for the first time in 6 years to meet with Joe Biden. The last time the US President and the Chinese leader met in person was at the G20 summit in Bali a year ago. The current meeting between Xi and Biden in San Francisco on the sidelines of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation summit has concrete results and agreements, including on Ukraine. Valery Klochok, a political expert and head of the Tower Center for Public Analytics, told Channel 24 about this. The US President called China's leader a “dictator” just hours after meeting him in person. In addition, Biden called these negotiations “one of the most productive.” The Chinese Foreign Ministry condemned the American leader and called his statement “absurd” and “provocative.” However, according to a political expert, Biden's statement about the dictatorial regime of Xi Jinping will not significantly affect relations between the countries. Moreover, they exchanged phone numbers with each other. Regarding Ukraine, a point is clearly stated in which it is indicated that Biden addressed Xi Jinping that the United States, together with its partners, will persistently help Ukraine so that our state emerges from the war as a democratic, independent, sovereign and prosperous country. There is a clear position,” Klochok noted. A number of issues discussed concern Russia’s ability to continue to wage war against Ukraine, stabilization of the situation in East Asia regarding the democratization of the Korean Peninsula. “This is such a greeting to North Korea. I don’t think Biden made such a statement without approval. I would like to draw your attention to the fact that they also talked about the Middle East and that even before the meeting, Iran stated that it would not support Hamas. Such an interesting detail. This The issue was resolved even before the meeting. There will be no war in Taiwan in the coming years,” the political expert said. Why the Kremlin does not comment on the US-China negotiations: watch the video Now Beijing is moving away from close cooperation with Moscow. Russia has become a serious market for China. In recent years, trade relations between countries have increased greatly. The idea that Vladimir Putin had been nurturing for many years about creating a bipolar world has come true. The head of the Kremlin saw himself at one pole, and Biden at the other. However, it turned out quite the opposite. At one pole is China, at the other is the United States, and Putin is somewhere in the Kremlin watching this. At the same time, the Russians took water into their mouths. I have not seen a single comment from Russia. There’s real panic in the Kremlin,” added Klochok. The US and China have decided to increase air travel for cultural, sports and social exchanges. This indicates the deepening of cooperation even at the social, everyday and tourism level. Such things are not prescribed by chance. Perhaps this is a great preparation for the creation of an interstate cooperation agreement. I will not say now that in the future China and the United States will become friendly countries. However, at this stage, pragmatism is winning, the political expert emphasized. There was also information that Biden allegedly insisted that Xi Jinping not help Russia. If we draw a simple line, now Putin just sits and watches all this, but cannot do anything.
