Os presidentes russo e chinês, Vladimir Putin e Xi Jinping, assinaram duas declarações conjuntas, uma sobre o fortalecimento da parceria abrangente e da cooperação estratégica, e outra sobre o desenvolvimento da parceria econômica russo-chinesa em áreas-chave até 2030, disse o presidente do país asiático.

“Assinamos uma declaração conjunta sobre o fortalecimento da parceria abrangente e da cooperação estratégica entrando em uma nova era. E uma declaração conjunta sobre um plano para desenvolver áreas-chave da cooperação econômica China-Rússia até 2030″, disse Xi após se encontrar com Putin no Kremlin na terça-feira.

O líder chinês acrescentou que traçou com Putin um plano para desenvolver “relações bilaterais e cooperação em todas as áreas em um futuro próximo”.

THE COVER-UP | The Biden Administration continues to conceal its responsibility for the destruction of the Nord Stream pipelines | SEYMOUR HERSH | Mars 22-2023

It’s been six weeks since I published a report, based on anonymous sourcing, naming President Joe Biden as the official who ordered the mysterious destruction last September of Nord Stream 2, a new $11-billion pipeline that was scheduled to double the volume of natural gas delivered from Russia to Germany. The story gained traction in Germany and Western Europe, but was subject to a near media blackout in the US. Two weeks ago, after a visit by German Chancellor Olaf Scholz to Washington, US and German intelligence agencies attempted to add to the blackout by feeding the New York Times and the German weekly Die Zeit false cover stories to counter the report that Biden and US operatives were responsible for the pipelines’ destruction.
