So you telling me that Putin is in China meeting with his new BFF Xi at the same time that Lil Kim and POTUS are travelling to Singapore,(two days early) for a Summit. Seems like there is a whole lot more going on here than even the Anons know…..Someone pass the Popcorn!

 

China's Xi declares Putin his 'best, most intimate friend' as Russia looks to the East for allies

China’s Xi Jinping handed Vladimir Putin a large, golden “Medal of Friendship” on Friday as the two met in Beijing, declaring the Russian leader his “best, most intimate friend”.

 

The elaborate ceremony, broadcast live on state TV, served as a prelude to the weekend’s annual summit of the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO), an eight-country grouping founded by China and Russia to further their shared interests.

 

As a symbolic display of strengthening diplomatic ties, it was hardly subtle. But at a time when Russia is becoming ever more isolated from its Western neighbours, and as the G7 holds its own summit in Canada, it serves to show the world that Moscow always has a plan B.

May clashes with Trump over his call for Russia to come back to G7

For the first time this year, India - as well as its neighbour Pakistan - will be joining as full members of the SCO when it convenes in the port city of Qingdao on Saturday.

 

It means that while this summit has been overshadowed by the build-up to Donald Trump’s historic meeting with Kim Jong-un in Singapore on Tuesday, the SCO has become a growing force in multilateral geopolitics that cannot be ignored.

 

Mr Xi said Sino-Russian relations had been a “priority” for both sides “no matter what fluctuations there are in the international situation”. He put the medal on Mr Putin, calling him a "good and old friend of the Chinese people” and “the leader of a great country who is influential around the world”.

 

Thanking him, Mr Putin said their one-on-one meeting ahead of the summit showed the “special attention and respect on which our mutual national interests are based, the interests of our peoples, and, of course, our personal friendship”.

 

A joint statement signed by the pair made further references to “growing global instability” and explicitly criticised President Trump pulling the US out of the Iran nuclear deal, saying they would fight to keep it alive. Iran’s president Hassan Rouhani is attending the SCO summit as an observer this year, his first foreign visit since Mr Trump’s decision.

 

Joseph Liow Chin Yong, a professor of international politics at the S Rajaratnam School of International Studies in Singapore, told The Independent the theme of the “uptick in China and Russia’s bilateral relationship” would extend into the SCO gathering itself.

 

On a day when Mr Trump was tweeting that he would use the G7 to fight against “the long time unfair trade practiced against the United States [sic]”, China and Russia will likely “also emphasise the importance of a globalised free trade regime, as a swipe to you-know-who”, said Dr Liow.

I know that, but how'd it get there? It's not like a typewriter you hit return and it goes back. It goes to the right,right, right, right then it's on the leftWTF? Just because a year went by, i didn't go backwards and I didn't move.
