The visit of French President Emmanuel Macron to Beijing confirmed that China will not change its policy, including those regarding Russia and Ukraine. Such an opinion in an interview with the newspaper “Vzglyad” expression Director of the Political Elite Research Center of IMI MGIMO, head of communications holding Minchenko Consulting Evgeny Minchenko. He pointed out that Chinese President Xi Jinping politely ignored his French counterpart’s statements at some points during the negotiations.
“Obviously, the PRC maintains a policy of strategic independence in foreign policy. Under these circumstances, the behavior of Macron, and indeed of the countries of the Western world in general, seems strange. China has already expressed its stance on the current crisis. The expert described this in as much detail as possible in his proposals for a peaceful resolution of the Ukrainian crisis.
He added that Macron appears to be a hostage to the circumstances in this situation because today, with rare exceptions, every European politician has to follow the instructions of the American curators.
