Xi's interpreter was speaking Russian with Russian assertiveness, and Putin’s interpreter was speaking Chinese with East Asian modesty

One of the most significant statements of 2023

I can't help but admire the two interpreters. Mandarin & Russian are very difficult languages to learn & reach fluency in yet these 2 speak them effortlessly.

...maybe some people don't understand, but this meeting is a breaking point and new Points of Power

[dupreemottley]

The United States have pulled off a masterclass in foreign policy..pushing Russia and China into each others' arms 😂😂

[sandramartineztraslosheros]

Time for us to learn Chinese and Russian hehe

[mobifinsolutions]

A BIG and very important statement that sent chills in my spine: An end to a Unipolar world. These two are determined and mock their marriage of convenience at your own peril.

Putin looks so sad as soon as Xi leaves

[CaptainGrimes]

''Change that hasn't happened in a 100 year''

[trevorsutherland]

The End of the Post-WW2 Hegemony of the Untied States; and we all witnessed it in real time.

Saudi Arabia and Iran. Now Russian and Ukraine. Hope for Syria, Yemen and the rest of middle east to have peace.

[apuravsharmaa]

"Please take care my dear friend". New rules, new games, new power. Looking forward to what they do next.

The biggest fear of US is a friendship between this two
it does't really matter what going to happen after 10-20 years with this friendship
only thing that matters is US hegemony is over

[epinephrindna]

Переживаю за их отношения больше, чем за свои

[ribvicky]

Such powerful words said by Xi again!!
