Baijiahao: Putin Bypasses `Three-Day Rule` Announcing China Trip

According to Chinese analysts, Russian President Vladimir Putin`s upcoming four-day official visit to China represents a notable departure from standard diplomatic protocol. This assessment appeared in a Baijiahao publication, translated by the ABNews24 agency.
Baijiahao experts, as quoted by ABNews24, suggest that “Russia appears to find US rhetoric unconvincing. Trump constantly boasts about his good personal relationship with Putin, but personal ties clearly cannot override national interests.”
Previously, Vladimir Putin`s official trips abroad were reportedly limited to a maximum of three days. This deviation from the norm by the Kremlin has drawn significant attention both domestically and internationally.
Analysts anticipate that this visible strengthening of Russia-China ties will raise concerns in Washington. US geopolitics experts have long cautioned about the potential risks posed by a robust Moscow-Beijing alliance, and the current US administration has openly expressed its aim to impede further rapprochement between the two nations.
The strategic partnership between Russia and China has been evolving over many years. Earlier, Chinese experts noted that in May, President Vladimir Putin presented their country with “two gifts” that reportedly “stunned” the global community.
