China's involvement in Summit in Saudi Arabia is a "bad news" for Putin - the media
According to the Associate Professor of the Stanford State Policy School of the University of Duke and the historian of the Soviet Union and the USA Simon Miles, the presence of a delegation of the PRC at a recent summit in Saudi Arabia is a bad sign for the head of the Kremlin Vladimir Putin. "The presence of the Chinese in Saudi Arabia is certainly the bad news for Putin, which was even more isolated Russia from her, which is declining friends," he said.
According to journalists, even though, China and Russia can still be called allies than enemies. Miles noted that even if China loses patience, Russia does not need to worry that it would turn away from it in the near future. Yes, SI seeks to reduce the presence of the United States on the world stage. This is a goal that Putin is enthusiastic enthusiastically. On the other hand, experts said, Beijing seeks to increase their own status within the existing international order.
To do this, you need to avoid the anger of European allies of Ukraine, many of which are key trading partners of China. "Therefore, she wants him to be considered a responsible interested person - even when he brushes a saber towards Taiwan," Miles said. We will remind that on August 9 the media wrote that the Kremlin was scared of diplomatic isolation after meeting in Saudi Arabia.
