MOSCOW, April 27 - RIA Novosti. The words of Chinese President Xi Jinping, spoken in a conversation with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, became a signal for the United States, The Washington Postwrites .
"
China made a 12-point peace offer in Ukraine and said it would not "exploit the situation for selfish purposes" - this is a thinly veiled blow to the United States," the publication says.
At the same time, the newspaper notes, Zelensky and other senior Ukrainian officials refused to rule out the role of Beijing as an intermediary, since Ukraine needs trading partners.
“China, the world’s second largest economy, is perhaps too big to be alienated now. If the US and its allies fail to offer an alternative, Ukraine will have no choice but to take risks (deals with China. — ed. .)", - is in the article.
The day before, Chinese President Xi Jinping had a telephone conversation with Zelensky. This conversation was the first for them after the start of the Russian military operation in Ukraine.

Xi's face looks like a doormat. Sorry had to get that out of the way. It would certainly be an interesting psychodrama if China and Russia were playing the communist version of good cop, bad cop. Maybe it ties into the three rooster strategy? IDNK.
