The US whines that Xi Jinping “does not pick up the phone” and does not want to talk to Biden and Zelensky. And it is bad news for China that it does not agree on a conversation with Biden.
~~ Biden is the President of the free world. ~~ (You know?)
The Chinese do not care anymore what the USA thinks in the first place and are well aware that if they agree to a conversation right now, it will look as if they have succumbed to pressure from the United States, which, through diplomatic and media channels, demanded such conversations to show the power of the USA…
Of course one day, they will talk to Biden, but much later, when it will not be connected with the context of the demands that preceded Xi Jinping’s visit to Russia. Now, China is making a silent diplomatic demarche, ignoring the demands of the hegemon to talk to him. And in fact, doing nothing, shows the weakening of the hegemon’s power – in other times, during a call from Washington, they picked up the phone immediately…
Now, those on call, those who have paychecks from the dying Empire, they live only in vassal countries. A sovereign country will not rush to the phone anymore, anywhere…
