Like most people who've seen the long white table between Putin and Macron, I couldn't stop laughing and thought Putin doesn't like French perfume or Macron smells! the recommended distance is 2m not 6m? But today , we see him put his own foreign minister on a longer table that he can barely see him... what is going on ?! I think, Putin,one of the shrewdest politicians around , knows that Covid perhaps is a biological weapon that should be avoided at all cost and not embraced to live with.... The Chinese must know that . They've been trying for 3 years to achieve zero Covid in a 1.5 billion population... it seems what the Russians and Chinese know doesn't bother most western politicians. They are encouraging people to live with Covid, have boosters every 3 months and live for today and to hell with what tomorrow brings.
