China wants to arrange a meeting between Trump and Putin, but there is a nuance — WSJ

Tramp

Chinese diplomats, through intermediaries, have suggested to US President Donald Trump's team to organize a summit between the American and Russian leaders, as well as to send Chinese peacekeepers to Ukraine after a possible ceasefire. This is what is written The Wall Street Journal.

According to journalists, China's proposal involves holding a US-Russia summit without Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. The White House has already rejected this initiative, calling it "unviable."

"The Chinese proposal does not include any commitment by Beijing to reduce economic support for Moscow. Since the start of the full-scale invasion, China has become an important economic partner for Russia under Western sanctions. Just last month, Chinese leader Xi Jinping held a telephone conversation with Putin, during which both pledged to deepen bilateral relations," — resembles an edition.

Experts believe that Beijing's initiative is connected with Xi Jinping's desire to prevent possible economic sanctions from the Trump administration. The US has already imposed an additional 10% tariff on Chinese goods due to China's role in the fentanyl crisis. Trump threatens to raise the tariff to 60%.
