- Vladimir Putin is traveling to China, Russia’s most significant ally, on a significant trip that aims to strengthen an alliance against the West and celebrate ties between the two countries.
- Heihe, a small town, is located close to China’s border with Russia. Few local tourists visit this location to get a glimpse of the nearby city of Blagoveshchensk, which is located just over the river.
- A tour boat idles on the lake while blaring out upbeat Chinese tunes in an effort to draw tourists, but because no one is buying tickets, it doesn’t appear that the boat will move throughout the day.
- China’s state media has been praising the results of this partnership since the Russian president returned to the Chinese capital.
- Additionally, the majority of the Chinese populace has joined Vladimir Putin’s war effort thanks to Xi Jinping’s administration.
- It has done this via state-controlled media, which do not speak about an “invasion” or even a “war” in Ukraine but rather a Russian operation that is justified to counter the expansionary tendencies of Nato and, in particular, the United States.
- Vladmir Putin is reportedly in China this week to take part in a forum assessing the development of Xi Jinping’s favorite project, the Belt and Road Initiative. It is a global transportation infrastructure network that connects China with nations to the west, but it has come under fire for occasionally trapping weaker countries in a cycle of debt.
- As they work to form a larger alliance against the West with other like-minded states, the leaders of China and Russia will celebrate their closer connections when they meet on the fringes of this summit.
