"Using Chinese influence, using Chinese diplomats, Russia is doing everything to disrupt the summit. Regrettably, such a big, independent country as China has become an instrument in Putin’s hands," Zelensky said Sunday in Singapore.

Yes, this summit is an effort to get tail-wagging going to put pressure on Russia and it's allies and it is DOA because of the Eastern territory already annexed...but whoever wrote that line above has to know that even a polite way of calling Xi a bitch of Putin's aims in Ukraine is going to strike a nerve...mostly because it is true...Russia & China and the rest of it's shared motley crew of pals are inextricably tied to each other for good & bad. Pointing it out is just so rude! Not wrong, though...
That line made me snort!
The US has made it clear that the US wants to take down Russia followed by China. The US wants to sanction Russia followed by China. Chinese can read. Russia needs help avoiding sanctions as does China now and in the future.
The current so called peace talks excluded Russia. RU was later invited for the last meeting at which time they would be handed the terms. Some countries including China passed on this set of meetings.
