Joe Biden, the fumbling, bumbling senile old man who flopped at the G7, NATO and especially in his “summit” with Putin is getting mocked by his pals in the communist Chinese party. China, like Russia and the rest of the world knows Biden is the weakest president this country has ever had.
The Chinese Communist Party applauded the meeting between Russian leader Vladimir Putin and American President Joe Biden on Thursday, leaving open the possibility of a similar encounter with its dictator, Xi Jinping.
Chinese state media condemned Biden, however, for not showing proper “respect” to Russia and attempting to brush away the Washington-Moscow relationship to focus on antagonizing China, but failing because Russia is “too big and too powerful.”
Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Zhao Lijian — most prominent on the international stage for floating the unsubstantiated conspiracy theory that U.S. Army is responsible for the Chinese coronavirus pandemic — in particular applauded Putin and Biden affirming their decision to extend the New START Treaty for another five years. The treaty limits nuclear weapons development. Russia had requested a year-long extension but Biden surprised Putin with a five-year extension in January. His predecessor, Donald Trump, had refused to extend the treaty without binding China to the agreement, given the latter is a much more formidable military power.
“China welcomes the agreement reached between the US and Russia on engaging in a bilateral dialogue on strategic stability,” Zhao told reporters Thursday. “As countries with the largest nuclear arsenals, Russia and the U.S. should follow relevant U.N. instruments and international consensus, fulfill their special and primary responsibilities in nuclear disarmament, and further substantively slash their nuclear stockpile.”
Zhao praised the text of the short joint statement the two world leaders published after meeting in Geneva, which affirmed in part, “a nuclear war cannot be won and must never be fought.”
“China always actively supports international efforts in nuclear arms control, and will continue to hold discussions on a broad range of issues bearing on strategic stability with relevant parties,” Zhao promised. “We also stand ready to have bilateral dialogue with relevant sides with mutual respect and on an equal footing.”
