Xi And Putin Face To Face Meeting
The meeting will take place in one of the former Soviet republicans, on the sideline of a regional summit.
This is Xi's first foreign trip since the Covid disaster started in Wuhan, more than 2.5 years ago.
Putin was hoping this would be doing a victory lap, to top off his performance at the Bejjing Olympics, but there's a change in plans.
Putin will be packing knee pads and lots of K-Y, as Xi grins ear-to-ear, as he envisions how he will be Russia's only major oil/gas customer, who gets to set his own pricing. He will also be sharing with Putin that he cannot supply advanced electronics, because the US says no.
