The office thing might have been improper, but at this point, who cares? More at issue is the extraordinary run Holder just completed as one of history’s great double agents. For six years, while brilliantly disguised as the attorney general of the United States, he was actually working deep undercover, DiCaprio in The Departed-style, as the best defense lawyer Wall Street ever had.
ERIC HOLDER HAS long insisted that he tried really hard when he was attorney general to make criminal cases against big banks in the wake of the 2007 financial crisis. His excuse, which he made again just last month, was that Justice Department prosecutors didn’t have enough evidence to bring charges.
Many critics have long suspected that was bullshit, and that Holder, for a combination of political, self-serving, and craven reasons, held his department back.
A new, thoroughly-documented report from the House Financial Services Committee supports that theory. It recounts how career prosecutors in 2012 wanted to criminally charge the global bank HSBC for facilitating money laundering for Mexican drug lords and terrorist groups. But Holder said no.
ERIC HOLDER’S LONGTIME EXCUSE FOR NOT PROSECUTING BANKS JUST CRASHED AND BURNED
New evidence supports critique that Holder, for a combination of political, self-serving, and craven reasons, held his department back from prosecuting big banks.

BANKSTER BLACKROCK IS JOE BIDEN'S BIGGEST PAYMASTER AND OPERATES ITS INTERESTS OUT OF THE BIDEN WHITE HOUSE UNDER GAMER LAWYER BRIAN DEESE, A FORMER BLACKROCK EMPLOYEE,
World’s largest asset management firm was “front and center” of Fed’s Wall Street bailout
The close collaboration between the US Treasury, the Federal Reserve and the multi-billion dollar asset management firm Blackrock in devising the March 2020 rescue operation for Wall Street has been revealed in an article published in the New York Times yesterday.
According to the article, Larry Fink, the CEO of Blackrock, the world’s biggest asset management firm, was “in frequent touch” with US Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin and Fed chair Jerome Powell “in the days before and after many of the Fed’s emergency programs were announced in late March.”
The Mysteries of Hunter Biden’s Laptop
Has the identity of Joe Biden’s Puppet Master just been revealed?
The whole world knows that Old Joe Biden is not really the man in charge. Biden himself has made this clear on numerous occasions, with his many oblique references to getting in trouble if he deviated from the instructions he was given. But it has never been fully clear who is running this dumpster fire known as the Biden administration; speculation has run to chief of staff Ron Klain, Barack Obama, and others. Now, however, another name must be added to the mix: that of none other than Hunter Biden. In a Dec. 3, 2018 recording that has just been found on Hunter’s notorious laptop, Hunter Biden boasts about Old Joe: “He’ll talk about anything that I want him to, that he believes in.”
To be sure, Hunter’s statements may amount to nothing more the grandiosity of a crack haze, but he was quite convinced of his influence over his father, adding: “If I say it’s important to me, then he will work a way in which to make it a part of his platform. My dad respects me more than he respects anyone in the world, and I know that to be certain, so it’s not going to be about whether it affects his politics.”
Hunter was proud of how much Old Joe admired him: “All those fears you think that I have of people not liking me or that I don’t love myself…I don’t fear that. You know why I don’t fear that? Because the man I most admire in the world, that god to me, thinks I’m a god. And my brother did, too. And the three of us, it was literally — I had the support to know I can do anything.” At another point, Hunter said: “Everyone thinks it, talks about how — ‘How can you be as good as your dad?’ ‘I’m better than my dad. You know why I’m better than my dad? Because my dad tells me I’m better than him, since I was 2 years old.”
Is Hunter Biden calling the shots in the White House? Someone is. Joe Biden has many times intimated that he is not the one who is doing so and that he knows this. In June 2021 at the G7 Summit, he said, “I’m sorry, I’m going to get in trouble with staff if I don’t do this the right way.” Which staff member would upbraid the president of the United States? He didn’t say. At a press conference in Nov. 2021, Biden gave the impression that someone had directed him not to take too many questions: “I can take…I’m going to get in real trouble…this is the last question I’m taking.” Again, who would he get in trouble with? The press was unsurprisingly incurious about this question.
On Sept. 8, 2021, Joe announced, “I‘m supposed to stop and walk out of the room.” On Aug. 30, 2021, he told a reporter, “I’m not supposed to take any questions, but go ahead.” But when the question turned out to involve his catastrophic mishandling of the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan, he said: “I’m not gonna answer Afghanistan now,” and summarily walked away.
There is also evidence, provided by Joe Biden himself, that his press conferences are scripted and carefully directed. On June 19, 2021, he said, “I’ll take your questions, and as usual, folks, they gave me a list of the people I’m going to call on.” Who gave him the list? No one asked. He has referred to his list of reporters on other occasions as well; apparently, he knows what questions he is going to be asked, and has prepared answers ready.
During the same recorded discussion recovered from Hunter’s laptop, Hunter is asked if Joe Biden as president will discuss drug reform. Hunter answered with maximum bravado: “He’s going to talk about drug reform and any other things that I want him to.” He boasted about “my presence if my dad becomes president of the United States” and spoke about what it would involve “if you’re going to be involved in politics the way that I am, which is to choose to engage with my father in that life because I believe in what he does.”
Empty bravado? Maybe. But on Dec. 16, 2018, Hunter texted his psychiatrist, Keith Ablow: “Been on calls with Dad most of day. Talking what’s next with political team.” On Jan. 16, 2019, Hunter texted Ablow: “My dad asked me to be in a call at 7:30 re political decisions.” Three days later, Hunter entered this search item into Google: “I think I put too much baking soda in my mix with cocaine to make crack how do I fix it.”
Is this crackhead the real power in this administration? That would explain a lot
Yellen: Trump China Tariffs Serve ‘No Strategic Purpose,’ ‘Raise Costs to Consumers’
Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen said Sunday on ABC’s “This Week” that tariffs the Trump administration imposed on China “serves no strategic purpose and raise costs to consumers.”
Anchor George Stephanopoulos said, “Several in Congress are calling for gas tax holidays. Is that on the table?”
Yellen said, “Well, look, you know, President Biden wants to do anything he possibly can to help consumers. Gas prices have risen a great deal, and it’s clearly burdening households, so he stands ready to work with Congress, and that’s an idea that certainly worth considering.
Stephanopoulos said, “How about lifting — this is separate from gas prices, but for broader consumers spending, how about lifting the tariffs on imports?”
Yellen said, “President Biden is reviewing tariff policy toward China. He inherited a set of tariffs from the Trump administration, many of which were put on as retaliation for China’s failure to respond to abuses that weren’t covered in an investigation. We all recognize that China engages in a range of unfair trade practices that it’s important to address, but the tariffs we inherited. Some serve no strategic purpose and raise costs to consumers, and so we reconfiguring some of those tariffs and reduce unnecessary burdens is something that’s under consideration.
Report: Joe Biden’s Globalists Suggest Cutting U.S. Tariffs on China to Score Political Points
The globalist wing of President Joe Biden’s White House is reportedly suggesting that the administration cut United States tariffs on China solely to score political messaging points with voters, regardless of whether a move would reduce inflation.
For months, Biden has been considering cutting U.S. tariffs on billions of dollars worth of China-made products that were first imposed by former President Trump and have been applauded by American union workers and domestic manufacturers.
According to Politico, discussions inside the Biden White House are “ratcheting up” as the administration grapples with soaring inflation, even though research has extensively shown there is no correlation between U.S. tariffs on China and current inflation.
Still, the globalist wing of the Biden White House, represented by Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen and Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo, is continuing to push the president to cut U.S. tariffs on China. Raimondo, Politico reports, has even gone as far as to suggest that China tariffs get cut solely to score political messaging points.
Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo, meanwhile, has focused her arguments on messaging — that its good politics to cut tariffs even if the actual impact on inflation is not that large. [Emphasis added]
Yellen, meanwhile, has continued citing a study that claims cutting U.S. tariffs on China could save nearly every American household about $800 every year. The study, though, was blasted by U.S. Trade Representative (USTR) Katherine Tai — a fixture of the economic nationalist wing of the Biden administration.
“The issue is that if you look at their methodology, and you look at how they think that, you know, inflation can be addressed through using trade tools, they are assuming a world, and U.S. economy, that has zero tariffs,” Tai said of the study that Yellen keeps citing as evidence to cut U.S. tariffs on China.
“So here’s the thing: For as long as we have been regulating commerce, we’ve had tariffs in some form, right? Every country still has tariffs,” Tai continued. “We haven’t always had inflation. And so I really have to challenge the premise of that study. And I think it’s either something between fiction or an interesting academic exercise.”
In the New York Times, Kim Glas with the National Council of Textile Organizations noted that there has been no evidence that tariffs have raised prices on American consumers, as is often claimed by free trade advocates and economic globalists.
Last week, the United Steelworkers (USW) wrote to Biden, pleading with him not to cut U.S. tariffs on China:
Too many U.S. companies have failed to take needed actions to address the threat posed by Chinese Communist Party policies. Many continue to outsource production, and research and development, undermining U.S. competitiveness and national security interests. They have failed to respond to the signals clearly and continuously sent by the CCP that it is not interested in competing, but in winning and dominating key industries. Our government must act in the national interest to strengthen our economy for the future. [Emphasis added]
From 2001 to 2018, U.S. free trade with China eliminated 3.7 million American jobs from the economy — 2.8 million of which were lost in American manufacturing. During that same period, at least 50,000 American manufacturing plants closed down.
Those massive job losses have coincided with a booming U.S.-China trade deficit. In 1985, before China entered the WTO, the U.S. trade deficit with China totaled $6 billion. In 2019, the U.S. trade deficit with China totaled more than $345 billion.
Meanwhile, a study from 2019 found that permanent U.S. tariffs of 25 percent on all Chinese imports would create more than a million American jobs in five years. American manufacturing is vital to the U.S. economy, as every manufacturing job supports an additional 7.4 American jobs in other industries.

‘A Win for the CCP’: Biden Waives Tariffs on Suspected Chinese Solar Panels
President Joe Biden on Monday announced a 24-month exemption of tariffs on solar panels from four southeast Asian nations that the Commerce Department suspects are actually made in China.
Solar panel imports from Cambodia, Thailand, Vietnam, and Malaysia were frozen after the Commerce Department opened an investigation in March on whether Chinese solar producers were illegally circumventing tariffs by routing their operations through those countries.
Reuters first reported that Biden has decided to exempt those solar panel imports from tariffs in order to get stalled solar-power projects back on track. The move will benefit U.S. solar developers and utilities that rely on imported solar panels, but hurt American solar panel manufacturers.
Auxin, a California-based solar panel manufacturer that prompted the Commerce Department’s probe through a complaint, slammed Biden’s decision.
“President Biden is significantly interfering in Commerce’s quasi-judicial process,” Auxin Chief Executive Officer Mamun Rashid said in a statement, according to Bloomberg. “By taking this unprecedented — and potentially illegal — action, he has opened the door wide for Chinese-funded special interests to defeat the fair application of US trade law.”
The White House “opened the door wide for Chinese-funded special interests to defeat the fair application of U.S. trade law,” Rashid said, according to Reuters.
Biden also on Monday invoked the Defense Production Act to expand U.S. manufacturing of solar panels and other clean energy technologies, with a goal of tripling domestic solar manufacturing capacity to 22.5 gigawatts by 2024.
The tariffs on imported solar cells and modules made in China were first imposed by the Obama administration in 2012, according to Reuters.
Last year, Republicans pushed to ban all Chinese imports suspected of being made with Uyghur slave labor, to include solar panels.
Sen. Rick Scott (R-FL) tweeted Monday, “@JoeBiden bows to Communist China & ignores human rights AGAIN.”
He added, “This will likely increase U.S. imports of solar panels made through Uyghur forced labor in Xinjiang. The Biden admin must stand against forced labor & prevent tax dollars from funding this horrific abuse.”
Republican Study Committee Chairman Jim Banks (R-IN) tweeted, “By lifting tariffs on solar energy imports from China, Biden is endorsing the industry’s heavy reliance on Uyghur slave labor.”
“This is a win for the [Chinese Communist Party] and a major loss for human rights and American producers,” he added.
The investigation will continue, and depending on the outcome of the probe tariffs could be levied, but not for at least 24 months, according to the report.
The freeze on imports had prompted concern by both Democrats and Republicans, who urged Biden to act.
Sens. Martin Heinrich (D-NM) and Thom Tillis (R-NC) said the investigation was “causing massive disruption in the solar industry,” and would “severely harm American solar businesses and workers and increase costs for American families as long as it continues.”
The solar industry cheered Biden’s tariff exemption.
President and CEO of the Solar Energy Industries Association Abigail Ross Hopper said in a statement to Reuters, “The president’s action is a much-needed reprieve from this industry-crushing probe.”
The U.S. International Trade Commission in December recommended a four-year extension of the solar tariff. The recommendation followed a determination that solar imports remain a threat to U.S. manufacturers.
Jesse Watters: The Biden family business
Schweizer added, “We also now know that Hunter Biden did these deals, but the larger family benefited. We know that James Biden, Joe Biden’s brother, got at least $2 million of that money from China. We also now know that Hunter Biden was subsidizing his father’s lifestyle. He was paying for his bills.

China Praises Cuba for Defending Uyghur Genocide at U.N. Human Rights Council
The communist government of Cuba hijacked this week’s ongoing U.N. Human Rights Council session to deliver a statement, signed by 69 countries, in support of China’s genocide of Uyghur and other non-Han ethnic groups in occupied East Turkistan.
Cuba and China, in addition to several other dictatorships and human rights abusers, enjoy seats on the Council, regularly using them to undermine the mission of the Council by forcing it to focus on Israel or America. Under President Donald Trump, America vacated the Council in protest of the disproportionate representation that human rights abuses have on the U.N. body, but President Joe Biden reversed that decision, making America a participant in the Council’s activities.
The Council recently expelled Russia in response to the eight-year-old invasion of Ukraine, which is also on the Council, but has made no similar moves against Cuba, China, Venezuela, Qatar, and other serial human rights violators.
Cuba’s intervention to defend genocide at the Human Rights Council was a response to 47 countries, including the United States, issuing a statement on Tuesday directed at U.N. High Commissioner for Human Rights Michelle Bachelet, who recently visited East Turkistan and concluded that the extensively documented Chinese concentration camp system had been dismantled and praised China’s atrocious human rights record.
Bachelet’s visit prompted global condemnation, particularly her effusive praise for China’s “tremendous progress” in human rights, and calls for her resignation. Last week, Bachelet said she would not seek reelection to the post when her first term expires in August.
“We urge China to ensure full respect for the rule of law, to comply with obligations under national and international law with regard to the protection of human rights and to ratify the ICCPR [International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights],” the statement read. “In addition, we urge the Chinese government to provide meaningful and unfettered access for independent observers to Xinjiang [East Turkistan] , including Special Procedures. In view of the severity of the situation in Xinjiang, we call on all countries to respect the principle of non-refoulement.”
The statement omitted the word “genocide” despite multiple signatory states having officially found China guilty of genocide in East Turkistan. It also demanded more information on human rights abuses in Tibet and Hong Kong.
The Chinese government began a genocide campaign in East Turkistan against the majority Uyghur population of that region, trapping as many as 3 million people into concentration camps, forcibly sterilizing entire villages of women, and using gruesome torture practices such as rape with electric batons to subdue the population. Evidence also suggests that China is harvesting live organs from political prisoners to sell on the black market.
China dismissed the statement as primarily signed by “developed” European countries, but among the signatories were African states Eswatini and Liberia, as well as Pacific island states Palau and Marshall Islands and Latin America’s Guatemala and Honduras.
Cuba’s statement defending China from genocide concerns, in contrast, was signed by some of the world’s most notorious abusers of their own people: North Korea, Iran, Saudi Arabia, Zimbabwe, Venezuela, Russia, Belarus, and Turkmenistan, among others. Also appearing on the list are Nayib Bukele’s El Salvador, Chinese military base host Djibouti, and Myanmar, itself facing years of evidence that it is committing genocide against its ethnic Rohingya Muslim population.
“Respect for sovereignty, independence and territorial integrity of states and non-interference in internal affairs of sovereign states represent basic norms governing international relations. Hong Kong, Xinjiang and Tibet related issues are China’s internal affairs that brook no interference by any external forces,” the statement read in part. “We oppose politicization of human rights and double standards.”
“We also oppose unfounded allegations against China out of political motivation and based on disinformation, and interference in China’s internal affairs under the pretext of human rights,” the statement read, referring to the heavily documented genocide.
China’s Foreign Ministry applauded Cuba and its allies for defending its genocide of the Uyghur people on Wednesday.
“Once again, nearly a hundred countries at the Human Rights Council spoke up for justice. And once again, the attempt of a handful of Western countries to attack and smear China on Xinjiang, Hong Kong and Tibet has been thwarted,” Foreign Ministry spokesman Wang Wenbin declared in his regular briefing on Wednesday. “This fully shows that political manipulation through human rights issues and interference in other countries’ internal affairs will find no support and will never succeed.”
Wang went on to claim that “those few Western countries” that signed the initial statement (including, presumably, Palau and Liberia) “ignore and trample upon human rights.”
“They are the No.1 origin of human rights tragedies in the world,” Wang claimed.
The Chinese state newspaper Global Times similarly celebrated Cuba and the other dictatorships supporting it in a column featured on its home page on Friday, declaring, “no country wants to be subject to US hegemony when it explores its own path of human rights.” The initial anti-genocide statements was submitted by the Netherlands.

China Praises Cuba for Defending Uyghur Genocide at U.N. Human Rights Council
Worst. President. Ever.
Derek Hunter
Try to imagine a President doing a worse job than Joe Biden. Think about how that would even be possible. Would they have to set the White House on fire while vomiting on Boris Johnson? Maybe a President in a Nyquil-induced stupor trying to start a nuclear war with Canada? Jimmy Carter on his worst day couldn’t hold a candle Joe Biden on his best, provided Biden ends up having a best day.
Remember this one: “I’m gonna ask the public for 100 days to mask, just 100 days to mask. Not forever, 100 days. And I think we’ll see a significant reduction if we occur that, if, if, if, if that occurs with vaccinations and masking to drive down the numbers considerably, considerably”? That was Joe Biden 1 year ago Friday, part of his “plan” he swore he had to “shutdown the virus.” How’d that work out again?
Has there ever been a bigger disconnect between what a candidate for President promised and what they delivered? It’s not even that Biden tried and failed, it’s that the entire premise of his campaign was a lie. He had no plan, he had no clue. All he had was an objective and handlers determined to get him there, for their own reasons.
It’s unclear to me that Joe Biden ever wanted anything more than the trappings that go with being President of the United States – the house, the being waited on hand and foot, and most importantly to a career politician with wild insecurity and unrivaled narcissism like Joe, the guarantee of being remembered. Senators are forgotten, quickly, Presidents are remembered forever. Someone who loves themselves as much as Joe does, who desperately needs others to love him just as much, that matters.
There’s also the added bonus that former Democratic Party Presidents are showered with money after their term, often times by the industries they pretended to “fight” when they were running. And Joe Biden loves money. He made a bunch after his stint as Vice President on the prospect that he would run in 2020 (leftists hedge their bets and spread their money around). That’s, of course, in addition to the millions his family raked in through Hunter’s string of jobs and contracts for which he was wildly unqualified. Joe pretends he isn’t, but he’s all about the money.
But to get to the rewards of being a former Democrat President, those Presidents tend to want to accomplish some things; they usually believe in things. Joe Biden believes in nothing. His biggest, and really only accomplishment in the Senate was the 1994 crime bill and he had to denounce it because Democrats had gone from being against crime and supporting police to supporting criminals and wanting to defund police.
On abortion, Biden changed his tune completely as well. There isn’t a person serving his administration, either in the White House or the media, who won’t insist Joe labored between running for President or becoming Pope, such a devout Catholic is he. And in his time in the Senate he used to pretend to be personally against abortion, but refused to allow his religious beliefs to dictate his policy positions. It was and is BS, but many politicians play this game (looking at you, Nancy Pelosi).
Now, he’s no longer pretending. The party of “safe, legal, and rare” abortions is now the party of abortions for everyone, on demand, with no restrictions on when. It won’t be long, maybe 5 years, before they start advocating post-birth abortions, taxpayer funded, of course. That’s where Democrats are now, so that’s where Joe Biden is now. Biden is such a weathervane on everything, and always has been, that he’d perform abortions in the White House if that’s what the fringe of his party demanded.
With no moral code, no center, nothing matters. You just read what’s in the teleprompter and hit the sack by 7:00 while your degenerate son collects piles of cash for the family until you’re free to do it on your own. All you have to do is what you’re told, your handlers and the media will take care of the rest.
That Joe Biden hasn’t come close to fulfilling any campaign promises, or even that those promises were made, is a testament to what he was willing to do to get the job. Just imagine what he’s willing to do to keep it. Even scarier, just imagine how much worse things have the potential of getting as he works to do just that.

Xi Jinping Offers Russia Economic Support After Zelensky Warns World to Defend Taiwan
Chinese dictator Xi Jinping called his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin on Wednesday to offer financial support and backing on Russia’s “respective core interests,” Chinese state media revealed, just days after Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky warned the world to defend Taiwan now before China decides to invade it.
Russia invaded Ukraine in 2014, colonizing its Crimean Peninsula that year and fueling an eight-year-old war between Kyiv and Russian-backed “states” in the eastern Donbas region. In February, Putin expanded the war by bombarding Kyiv, its suburbs, the southern port city of Mariupol, and other key areas, launching a full-scale assault. As a result, much of the Western world has called for a boycott of Russian products and divestment from the country.
China has abstained from any major role in the latest chapter of the Ukraine war, instead vaguely calling for a diplomatic resolution and rejecting any comparisons between Russia’s colonization of Ukraine and a potential Chinese invasion of Taiwan.
Taiwan is a sovereign, democratic island state off the coast of China. The Chinese Communist Party insists that Taiwan is a province of China seized by rogue separatists – despite the Taiwanese government having no historical ties to Beijing – and forces its allies to vow never to formally accept Taiwan’s sovereignty, a policy the Party calls the “one China principle.”
China’s Xinhua news agency, a government outlet, reported on Wednesday that Xi told Putin that he was pleased with the “steady progress” of China-Russia economic ties.
“The Chinese side stands ready to work with the Russian side to push for steady and long-term development of practical bilateral cooperation, Xi said,” according to Xinhua. “China is willing to work with Russia to continue supporting each other on their respective core interests concerning sovereignty and security, as well as on their major concerns.”
Xinhua did not elaborate on any conversation involving Ukraine, but stated that Xi was eager to work with Putin on the “development of the international order and global governance towards a more just and reasonable direction.”
Russian state news outlets largely coincided with the Chinese version of events in the Putin-Xi phone call. While Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov reportedly told journalists Moscow would have more details later, confirming only that the call took place, state propaganda outlet Sputnik reported Xi’s alleged comments on the Ukraine invasion specifically.
“The two presidents also addressed the issue of the ongoing conflict in Ukraine, with Xi Jinping telling Putin that all parties concerned should work towards ending it,” Sputnik claimed. “The Chinese leader, in turn, promised that Beijing will continue to play its constructive role in this process.”
Xi called Putin less than a week after the Washington Post published comments by Zelensky not to leave Taiwan “at the mercy of another country” – the way, he implied, the world abandoned Ukraine.
“No one benefits from [war], apart from certain political leaders who are not content with the present level of their ambitions. Therefore, they keep growing their appetites, their ambitions,” Zelensky reportedly replied to a direct question about Taiwan. “The world enables these leaders to grow their appetites for now, therefore we need a diplomatic resolution to support countries that are in need of help.”
Referring generally to smaller states, Zelensky said, “we must not leave them behind at the mercy of another country which is more powerful… if there is a way out diplomatically, we need to use the diplomatic way. But it must be a preemptive way, not the one that comes after the war has started.”
The Chinese government, through its Global Times propaganda newspaper, condemned the Washington Post for publishing the remarks, calling the newspaper “pathetic” and its report “false.” The Times emphasized that Zelensky never used Xi Jinping’s name or said “China,” even though the question he was responding to was exclusively about Taiwan’s relationship with China.
“Zelensky understands the issue concerns China’s core interest,” the Global Times claimed, while chiding the Ukrainian president for a “lack of full knowledge of the Taiwan question.”
Zelensky has attempted to maintain friendly relations with communist China as Ukraine signed onto the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), China’s global infrastructure debt trap plan, before he became president. Last month, Zelensky defended China for not taking any strong stances on Russia’s invasion, even as China strengthened its economic ties to Russia.
“China has chosen the policy of staying away. At the moment, Ukraine is satisfied with this policy. It is better than helping the Russian Federation in any case,” Zelensky told the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland. “We are satisfied with this status quo, to be honest.”
Prior to the war, however, Zelensky antagonized China by blocking Chinese companies from attempting to buy Motor Sich, an aeronautics company that makes, among other key military items, jet engines. Zelensky imposed unilateral sanctions on China last year and nationalized Motor Sich to block the Communist Party from seizing the corporation.
While abstaining from a major role in the Ukraine invasion, Chinese officials have pressured the world not to compare a potential Chinese invasion of Taiwan to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine – emphasizing, to Zelensky’s approval, that Ukraine is a sovereign country in China’s eyes, while Taiwan is a rogue province hijacked by “separatists.”
“Taiwan is for sure not Ukraine,” Chinese Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Hua Chunying said in February in the immediate wake of Russia’s assault on Kyiv. “Taiwan has always been an inalienable part of China’s territory. This is an indisputable historical and legal fact.”
Hua did not offer any evidence for the claim, as Taiwan has never been governed by a regime headquartered in Beijing and the latter has no power over the current Taiwanese government.
