đ§”My take as I watch the Sino-Russian summit: There is growing convergence between China and Russia. It is intrinsic, driven by shared interests/opposition to the West; not a function of our actions. #Russia wants to revise the post-1991 order; #China wants to replace it. 1/5
After Xi's success with Saudi Arabia, he will try to position China as a peacemaker in #Ukraine, with an eye to securing a Russian victory there. Here much will depend on the outcome of the upcoming Ukrainian offensive. Both Beijing and Moscow believe time is on their side. 2/5
Russian Def. Minister Sergey #Shoigu announced that the Russian MoD intends to increase the size of #Russiaâs air defense forces at a Russian MoD collegium on March 22, though the Russian military is unlikely to generate such forces within several years. isw.pub/UkrWar032223
2/ #Shoigu also likely signaled to #Japan that it should not attempt to exploit #Russiaâs current military vulnerability in the Kuril Islands and to #China that Russia remains a worthwhile military partner. isw.pub/UkrWar032223
3/ On the topic of #Ukraine, when asked by a #Russian journalist how the war will end, #Shoigu responded by saying all wars end in peace. The journalist followed up by asking when peace would come, but Shoigu didnât answer and walked away. isw.pub/UkrWar032223
Latest: Xi Jinping concluded his visit to Moscow, and experts say the trip shows Russia is becoming increasingly dependent on #China. If the status quo of the war persists, China would be the biggest beneficiary. Ft: @SariArhoHavren @ChongJaIan @TUmarov dw.com/en/xi-ends-lanâŠ
Overall, China and Russia further consolidated their bilateral relations as Xi and Putin acknowledged the importance for both sides to support each other on issues concerning their core interests and "jointly resist the interference in internal affairs by external forces."
Some experts have said the meeting further emboldened both Xi and Putin as the pair finds more common grounds to deepen the "no-limits partnership."

#Russland und #China verstehen sich heute als strategische Partner. #XiJinping und #Putin eint der Wunsch nach RegimestabilitĂ€t. Doch hinter der freundschaftlichen Fassade stehen ungelöste Konflikte, die vor 54 Jahren beinahe zum #Atomkrieg gefĂŒhrt hĂ€tten/1
Dahinter steht eine lange Vorgeschichte. #Russland zwang 1858/1860 Peking "ungleiche VertrÀge" auf und eroberte weite Teile der Mandschurei. Ausgerechnet die Stammesgebiete der Quing-Dynaste gerieten unter Kontrolle des Zarenreichs. Wladiwostok ("beherrsche den Osten")/2
So nannte der Zar die neue Siedlung auf dem Land der Vorfahren der Quing. Eine bewusste DemĂŒtigung Pekings. Russland drang auch in Zentralasien (Xinjiang) und der Mongolei in Gebiete vor, die China beanspruchte. Erst die Niederlage gegen Japan (1905) stoppte den russ. Vormarsch/3

No one should expect the #US to surrender and accept its hegemony to be challenged and not react. The US will look for other possibilities to create havoc worldwide and blame the "challenge of the world (US) order", particularly #Russia and #China.

Dutch government to ban use of TikTok on government phones
The government immediately advises government officials not to use apps from countries such as China and Russia on their work phones. In time, a complete ban will follow.#China #Russia #TikTok nu.nl/tech/6256249/nâŠ

Minister van Huffelen says that the government goes further than discouraging 1 app. "We are opting for a structural solution that government officials can trust, with their work in a digital world. The government must be able to do its work safely, also via mobile devices."
Soon,officials will get phones on which only pre-approved apps can be installed and used. Spy-sensitive apps are banned altogether from that moment on.Exceptions are made if an app is needed for specific tasks of a government org(such as inspection&supervision or investigations).

Central government blamed rebels from âCoalition of Patriots for Changeâ (CPC). CPC declared its noninvolvement in this incident and accused the "Wagner" Group.
The CPC is made up of many small insurgent groups whose goal is to overthrow the central government.

Monday was pretty quiet and this morning has started the same way in #Ukraine, with no major news to report overnight, with no update on the drone attack in #Crimea
So let's look at #Russia's daily losses. Almost 1,000 troops: tanks and artillery system numbers above average too

2) It made a difference.
The subsequent clash on Dec. 9 involving hundreds of troops wielding spiked clubs and Tasers did not result in any deaths as previous encounters have, rather it was limited to a dozen or so injuries and â most conspicuously â a Chinese retreat.

3) âThey were waiting. And thatâs because the U.S. had given India everything to be fully prepared for this,â the source says. âIt demonstrates a test case of the success of how the two militaries are now cooperating and sharing intelligence.â
"#Chinaâs leader Xi Jinping underlined the country's willingness to play a role in finding a political solution to Russia's war in #Ukraine, according to a readout of the meeting Xi had with Russian President Vladimir Putin Monday." edition.cnn.com/europe/live-neâŠ
The readout said China and Russia "shared similar goals" and Xi and Putin âexchanged in-depth views on the Ukraine issue" during their conversation.
Xi emphasized that "voices of peace and reason are constantly gathering, and the majority of countries support easing tensions, advocating reconciliation and talks, and oppose fueling the fire," according to the readout.
