#Putin's meeting with a member of the Politburo of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of #China (#CPC), the head of the Office of the Foreign Affairs Commission of the CPC Central Committee, Wang Yi, took place in a much more relaxed atmosphere. 1/7
The president gave a warm welcome to the dear guest, who, it must be said, felt himself the master of the situation. Wang Yi, while shaking hands with #Putin, held his right hand in such a way that Putin had to stretch his out far. 2/7
From the side, it looked as if the president was reaching out to a guest who allowed #Putin to shake his hand. Putin brought Lavrov to the meeting with the #Chinese guest and invited Secretary of the #Russian Security Council Nikolai #Patrushev. 3/7
#Patrushev decided not to put the quarrel with the president on public display and attended the meeting. The President of #Russia complained to the guest about the difficult times and thanked him for his support, transparently hinting that he was counting on more. 4/7
They discussed the possible visit of #Chinese leader #XiJinping. The Chinese side suggested that the leaders of the two countries hold preliminary online talks in March or April. #Putin agreed. The date will be agreed upon later. 5/7
Wang Yi outlined to the #Russian leader the concept of the #Chinese leadership's vision of a peace plan to end the conflict in #Ukraine. #Putin said that many points need to be considered, and he wants to discuss the details with #XiJinping. 6/7
In essence, these negotiations did not bring any breakthrough, but it was not expected. #Putin's main goal is to persuade #XiJinping to visit #Russia and, if possible, receive tangible assistance as a result of negotiations with the #Chinese leader. 7/7

in his speech, made it clear that he would not leave the presidential post to the end, whatever that end might be. Indirect praise of the Minister of Agriculture of #Russia, Dmitry Patrushev, in the message was perceived by the Secretary of the Security Council as a mockery.

Dear subscribers and guests of the channel! Yesterday, #Russian President Vladimir #Putin, for the most part, devoted himself to the preparation of the final text of the message to the Federal Assembly. The president did not have a good morning. 1/9

Over the weekend, #Putin underwent another medical examination. The recent therapy did not give the expected results, and a new one, based on the results of the examination, was prescribed and will begin on March 5th. 1/4

The #Taliban demand official recognition, and in return, they are ready to give up their attempts to seize parts of the territory of #Tajikistan for some time. And this is despite the gigantic sums previously paid by #Russia to the Taliban, in fact, for... 3/8
