Xi Jinping supports Putin’s position on war against Ukraine (www.pravda.com.ua)

Cross-posted from "Xi Jinping supports Putin’s position on war against Ukraine" by @MicroWave@lemmy.world in !world@lemmy.world

In a joint statement following talks, Xi Jinping and Putin stated that the war in Ukraine could only be resolved by removing its "root causes".

Such formulation clearly echoes key Russian propaganda messages used by the Kremlin to justify the launch of the full-scale war, including the threat of NATO expansion, discrimination against Russian-speaking people and the suppression of the Russian language, culture and media in Ukraine.

I wouldn't have guessed that Xi is taller than Putler.

Consensus says that Xi is 5'11"/1.8m while Putler varies wildly from 5'2"/1.57m to 5'7"/1.7m
