Great news: Biden asks China to solve the Russia-Ukraine war

On the menu today: The allegedly tough-on-China Biden administration now wants to invite Xi Jinping to the negotiations over how to end the war driven by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. There are about a million reasons this is a bad idea, not the least of which being that at this point, there’s no sign that the Russian government is willing to negotiate a ceasefire. China is an increasingly close ally to Vladimir Putin, and China’s first proposal to end the conflict would have allowed Russia to keep what it has conquered and required the lifting of all sanctions on Russia. Why are some corners of the Biden administration so eager to allow the Chinese government to shape the post-war landscape?

Who, within the Biden administration, looks at the war in Ukraine — which has effectively turned into a proxy war between NATO and Russia — and says, “Hey, we should let Xi Jinping play a role in settling this dispute”?

[President Foreign Policy Instincts strikes again. This is nothing more than a surrender to Beijing’s ambitions of hegemony. Xi and his regime want to carve out all of Asia and Eurasia as their area of domination, and the Biden administration couldn’t care less. If I were in Taiwan, I’d be preparing for a big back stab in the near future. — Ed]
