Another blow to Putin. What is China doing
He "warned" any country from interfering with Kazakhstan's affairs a few days before the meeting of two leaders face-to-face on September 15. This message referred to Russia because the Kazakhs have been under Putin's sight since June after their leader openly criticized the war in Ukraine, and then announced that the export of Kazakh oil would be directed towards Europe. The Russians blocked exports and hinted that Kazakhstan could be invaded, as did Ukraine.
Video of this week, SI intervened, promising to protect the country from invasion at a private meeting with leaders, the information of which was leaked out. "We (China) will strongly support Kazakhstan in protecting its independence, sovereignty and territorial integrity. " It is equivalent to the prestige of SI against Putin's imperialism. Whatever they speak publicly after they meet how powerful their connections are, China is distanced from Putin, since his war in Ukraine is failing.
