- “This represents a strengthening of the alliance between the two countries. We will see more military drills and more dual use support, for Russia's war machine in Ukraine.”
Putin and Xi’s agreement to strengthen military ties and economic partnership after talks in Beijing is a “concern” for the West, says former correspondent in Moscow and Beijing Ian Williams.

A complete disaster of the foreign policy of the United States pushed the Russian and the Chinese too close to each others, against all odds, now the Muslims world also be aline with China and Russia eventually due to unconditional & unjustified support for the Israel.😂😂😂😂

Nonsense!!! That is really CRIBS!!!
You all are aware that US is trying to treat China as its enemy, right? So, how can China not react to that sort of mentality?
The US is on the ropes. Game over!

SANCTIONS!!!!!!!!
I DON'T THINK THE WEST CAN HANDLE ANYMORE SANCTIONS, DO YOU.?
IT'S ALL BACKFIRED ON THE COUNTRYS THAT HAVE SANCTIONED RUSSIA.! 🙊🙉🙈
RUSSIA IS LAUGHING ALL THE WAY TO THE BANK.!
THERE OWN ECONOMIC FORUM MEETING IN OCTOBER, IS SET TO BREAK ALL TRADE RECORDS, AND ENTER EVEN MORE COUNTRY'S INTO, THE ALREADY HUGE BRICS PARTNERS IN TRADE.!
THIS IS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE DAVOS SIDESHOW, RUN BY THE GLOBALIST KLAUS SCHWAB, WHO WAS IN HOSPITAL, OR THAT WAS THE STORY RELEASED, FROM HIS VERY SHORT STAY AT GITMO, WHERE HE MET HIS END, FOR CRIMES AGAINST HUMANITY.!
THIS IS KILLING THE FEDERAL RESERVE & THE WORTHLESS DOLLAR, BACKED BY MILITARY THREAT ONLY.!
That's funny the West can't stand anymore Sanctions.!
Anglo Saxons noise 🏳️🌈🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️🏳️⚧️👎👎
Sanctions no longer work clown
Russia and China each have their own problems. Their internal affairs is solely their
own affairs that no other nations should interfere.
As many other governments repeatedly
said, we are working fir the interest of our nations. It is 100% correct.
So, I think, Russia and China are of no difference with others, they only care for the interest of their nations.
What happen to the talk of the economy, free trade and open market? isn't a basic right for any country to run its business as they wish?
These people know nothing about Russia
To the Indian’s absolutely bumming Russia - “we love Russia”, “Russia is our best friend”, “Russia helped us”.
All I gotta say is….i told you so.
Good luck dividing your country between Russia and China lol
India ❤ Russia .... goog freinds and good relationship , Western nations are not our concern
Whilst accepting money from the UK???
This is all planned. All of it.
American have more than 200 military bases surrounding CHINA.... So who form ankther national security issues ????
What concern about nato? Russia and China ? Idont know the answer but am asking ?
I don't think this is anything for the West to be alarmed by. The West has NATO, QUAD, AUKUS, etc. The common denominator here is the United States.
US is still super strong , fights for freedom & democracy against authoritarian, tyrannical dictatorships like Russia , china communist party , Iran , north Korea ...!!! - Putin & xi don't like it ..😂
Long live Russia/China eternal friendship!. Peace and prosperity. Stop the west bullying! VIVA! VIVA!

"Two men who are used to getting their own way" - for a western journalist to describe what is going on in such crass terms is a why China-Russia are successful. Ian Williams schools the child brilliantly here. I believe he is correct in his interpretation of these events. Russia is becoming a Chinese dependency and we will too if we're not careful [if we are not already].
Being dependency on China is good as the Chinese will manufacture everything for Americans and we can have more time watching NBA, NFL, March madness, and the World series. What's more, there'll be plenty of time for trash talking too. 😂😂😂😂😂
Does China not seriously have to ask the question is it better for China to do business with the west or is it better to do business with Russia.
We have to look at other markets away from China if the answer is Russia.
Investment in emerging markets by the west is the only option.
China is definely looking away!
This guy is so clueless it's shameful
Why don't you count how many military bases around China first?
I am not sure what this guy is smoking.
Neither of them can really go alone, but together they have some chance to stand. And together, it’s easier to influence others. One of my rare personal conspiracy theories is that maybe Putin helped Xi rise and solidify power.
Brazil president has announced the Switzerland meeting he won’t be attending. Disappointing indeed
Its pointless anyway 😂
What's the point of attending if Russia aren't present. Can hardly resolve the issue if they aren't there
He is a russian drone... Portuguese woprld is russfied...
@@slippinjimmy2569 experience makes one question if something like that has point even if russia is present. They will sign one document one day, and break it the next day.
@VilkatisJanis the West are no different. The US and West have broken numerous agreements - the Minsk agreements, JCPOA.
Fiction writer Williams is wrong about China-Russia asymmetry because although China is wealthier on paper and has a huge domestic market in case exports decline, only Russia of all countries on the planet is self-sufficient and can pick and choose to whom it exports. The oil sales to Europe mentioned were (and remain because Germany still stockpiles Russian gas and oil) actually from surplus to the much larger piped and containerized energy products for far export. Moreover, as Russia developed trans-Ural regions and is rapidly expanding production in the steppes and south Siberia it requires immigration and has been orderly about it. Russians speak Russian like Indians and Chinese speak English -- for business -- but Russia has hundreds of different everyday languages. Regional and district governance, education and the medical structures use location languages and have done so since Lenin gave up on the idea and making everything European Russian. Zelenskyy etc could learn from this - although it is matter of fact that Russian, like English, is a pervasive language free from the rules of so many other languages. The effect is brevity where needed and beauty as well.
Immigrants are being drawn from Turkic speaking CIS states, middle Siberia, the Pacific seaboard neighbor states, western China, Japan and Mongolia. High abilities in different fields are required and laborers tend to be vetted and work on annual contracts with accommodation provided inclusive of tillage responsibilities. This helps to spot laziness. Thus Russia will steadily have a substantial domestic market, though not on the scale of China and India.
Russia feeds and waters the Eurasian continent, south Asia and into Africa without futile 5 year plans and the like such as Stalin and Mao had.
Mr Greene spoke like a typical "them and us" westerner but at least showed awareness of how the world is on the change from 'the US century'. Free trade is either free or it is on a restrictive model such as the US/EU one. China is a merchant nation and plays the capitalist game to advantage at present yet is longer legged and has a different view of time from western model states. Nor is it warlike by tradition. Although showing off some toys around Formosa it also sees advantages it not having the same flag.
What is really odd is that the USA and some European states believe that they have rights in other continents. Why not just trade?
Ukraine will be in no position trade in its nearest pond for some time but it was lazy, corrupt and badly run for 30 years. China has no position on it except preferring to see an end to fighting on a lucrative continent to which to export.
'Dominance' is not the point for China, Russia or India. Just why it should be for some western states would benefit from psychiatric analysis.
Don't exaggerate too much that cheap goods focus on development in business and security ✌️
What nonsense. It is the US sending her aircraft carriers and battleships to the South China Sea. The US is more than 10000 km away. After the end of WW 2, the US also commited the most wars in the world. The US has 800s military and naval bases around the World and yet China is aggressive. Does that make sense to any thinking person?
Primary level geography is too challenging for them.
It puzzles me how China and Russia have been aided by the west in their rise to power. I remember in the 80's my dad telling me China will be the country to watch out for in the future and he's far from a geopolitical analyst. If he knew it why didn't Western leaders? As for Putin and his cronies, they have always been gangsters and yet again, allowed to rise to power from nothing in the early 90s to an aggressive military dictatorship. I had a feeling things weren't going to go well in the early 2000s and we should have been prepared for this.
The west wasted it’s resources during the Afghanistan iraq wars.also the west keeps getting bogged down thanks to the Middle East and bible thumping crusaders.
The west should start diverting their factories away from China and move these factories to other Asian countries and the western consumers should start boycotting Chinese products specially cars that is flooding the world with cheap cars and we should not be tempted by the cheaper price. The west made China rich and powerful.
^^^Exactly.

And so what
Good partnership. Partnership between Israel /Ukrine and US is more harmful .
No, you're wrong. You're myopic on Ukraine.
China can see Russia has the best military hardware. They will buy Sukhoi Russian jet fighters for instance.
They will buy one jet, then reverse engineer to meet demand.
Best hardware😂😂😂
Ru-China-India are all connected by huge borders ...I am sure there would be an innate understanding of that geo-political reality between these neighbouring countries at a deeper level that is not being understood by the West.

No need, sanctions on china are far more catastrophic for china than they would be for russia.
Plus the fact china has enemys that are not nato who are right next door to keep them on their toes if they feel like taking land.@@kom17
Modi had just won the contract to lease Iranian port and actively taking advantage of resale Russia oil and gases to Europe.
Modi can trade with Russia but Xi can't.?
USA has already threatened India with sanctions!
China does not care what the US or EU says anymore. China won't follow the one-sided US rule-based order. China has made it clear to the US, EU and the world that it won't be bullied to follow the US rule-based order.
You majestic. They know. Just. Movie and drama. I told them the order bring it
well trade is because china allows private companies to trade same as EU actually for many types of products but EU companies have stopped them selves in most cases because payment issues but also moral which Chinese companies do not care about it is all about money.So even if many product are allowed to be sold to Russia we refuse to sell to them. All EU and US companies operating in China for example give the Russians the fiinger even if their product is not sanctioned. And why China most countries in Asia do not have any sanctions.
You'd think your subscribers might question why we've made enemies with most of the world....if they questioned anything,that is. 'chinas behaviour..in its own sea'😂
Pull the plug
Except China might be a restraint to Putin … and if he feels more secure he’s less likely to lash out
Keep it up ! China

@@outoforbit00 It's actually not. I only see Russia invading Ukraine and some countries providing lethal aid to either side.
I agree that it could change into WW3 once Russia starts to lose substantial territory in Ukraine and Putin needs to escalate in order to stay in power.
@@outoforbit00 nah, so far I would rather compare it to a cold war style proxy war.
@@pjhgerlach exactly
i think it is self serving prophecy. I have came to believe the more EU/NATO try to avoid/fears WW3, the closer we get to it.
If west acted more bravely from the verry beginning of 2022, we would be over and than with this all bs. Now all i hope is that we have not let it go on for too long, losing chance it goes our way.
it's imperative that NATO now looks at more strongly supporting Ukraine , while also decoupling away from business with china - having US & EU countries move out of manufacturing , business in china ...
Biden increasing tariffs on china exports to US is a strong message of this , if Europe do the same , this will further weaken china's economy ...!!!
and we are doing commerce with them? ban chinese stuff.

3 what country produces the most weapons in the world.
What country tends to take other countries infrastructures over after these Wars.
And their resources.

I think closer ties between China and Russia, will weaken demand for Chinese manufactured goods in the West.
People will not want to buy Chinese goods if China is seen to support Russian aggression toward Ukraine.
China can trade with the rest of the world (which is at least 70-80% or more countries and population wise) but where will US and EU sell their overpriced and expensive goods to? If China retaliates, I foresee a lot of US and western companies including the big ones to fall one by one like dominoes. Loss of HUGE 1.4 Billion consumer market is a HUGE disaster for US and EU companies.
It will have an effect, and it will mean less investment.

The "experts" we deserve...
Will you still consider Ukraine a democratic state according to you after Zelesky's time has expired? He will become a de factor leader, it is unconditional. Times Radio please lets have a discussion on this. We heard enough of Putin and Xi. Let us are hear more about Biden and Sunak.
It's constitutional.
The Ukraine peace conference will be held on June 15 and 16 ..Bürgenstock hotel above Lake Lucerne in central Switzerland. 50 countries out 160 invited delegations have confirmed they will attend.The big question mark is whether China will attend the Swiss conference, Beijing was “examining the possibility of taking part”. (USE OF STICK AND CARROT...REQUIRED ? would say ?
Say that to Israel 😂😂
Almost certainly, China won't attend as it won't bring any real results except more talk and criticizing Russia which is a waste of time and resources which China can put to better use. Even if by tiny remote chance that China decided to attend, they will just send a lower or mid-level official to just hear what is being said. That is all.
President Xi has already just spoken in France and again during the recent meeting with Putin that any peace talk MUST involve Russia and it will be held at an appropriate time.
Would the UK and the Commonwealth countries consider to propose expansion of the UN Security Council or representation within the UN, of Asian countries and the Global South, counties which are perhaps under- represented at this point in time?
Perhaps this could help bring peace to all.
Russia has Putin as its fearless leader - Britain has"pint-sized loser" Ritchie Sunak'
Except for the fact that Putin lives in constant fear. It's the Communist way.

Most so-called China experts are overrated. The moment they open their mouth, it's about China is bad or weak or all negative things. That is not real true expert talking, but instead they are doing some propaganda for some countries. So laughable. Most of them are wrong on China anyway.
