Xi Jinping and Putin Reaffirm 'No Limits' Partnership Amid Ukraine War

In a recent phone call, China's President Xi Jinping and Russia's Vladimir Putin reinforced their strategic partnership on the anniversary of Russia's Ukraine invasion. Despite U.S. diplomatic maneuvers, the alliance remains firm. Beijing's stance on the war strains ties with Europe and the U.S.

China's President Xi Jinping reiterated the 'no limits' partnership with Russia in a call with President Vladimir Putin, marking the anniversary of Russia's invasion of Ukraine.

The dialogue appears to counter efforts by the U.S., led by Donald Trump, to press for a peace deal in Ukraine, which could have isolated Xi's stance.

The two leaders emphasized their alliance's resilience and independence from third-party influences, maintaining strategic unity amid diplomatic tensions with Europe and the U.S.
