Russia Ukraine war, page-120637

so we have Xi visiting putes later today .

personally I see this as a show of support (without offering any tangible support which would be at a cost to Chinese interests ) .....PLUS.....

Writing in the Russian newspaper Rossiiskaya Gazeta, a daily published by the Russian government, Xi said discussions could be based on China’s 12-point proposal for a political settlement published last month.https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2023/3/20/chinas-xi-calls-for-rational-way-out-of-ukraine-conflict

anyone else care to make any comment/predictions on purpose and outcome ?
