Oleh Rybachuk, former Deputy Prime Minister of Ukraine for European Integration, stated that the leaders of Russia and China declared in a joint communiqué that they aim to end the era of U.S. political dominance and announce new rules for the world order

He expressed this opinion on the air of Espreso.

"In reality, not much has been imposed against Putin, and now his mood is entirely different. Today, Putin is a triumphant figure: a parade on Red Square, he's sitting next to Xi Jinping, and beside him is someone in a costume. I'm always surprised by these so-called veterans—by now they should be 110–120 years old, but they look much younger. 

Still, all the signs of 'victory-mania' are there, and Putin today is like a king at a name day celebration. Xi Jinping and Putin made a public act of humiliation toward the great Donald, because all of U.S. policy during Trump's second coming was aimed at somehow detaching Russia from China," the politician noted.

According to him, Xi Jinping, before visiting Putin, said that despite all the pressure, there is now a stronger friendship between them than ever. They then issued a joint declaration, stating that peace must take into account the root causes of the war.

"Understanding diplomacy and the principles of China's policy—which is still cautious and tries to gain economic dividends—Beijing wouldn't want to quarrel with the EU. And what’s happening now in Lviv (on May 9, 35 delegations from EU countries and others arrived in Lviv – ed.) also influences the politics of this 'brotherly' relationship between China and Russia. 

When Beijing is forced to make an 'either-or' choice and is backed into a corner economically, it will see no point in investing its efforts in Russia—especially since it has already gained control over territory up to the Urals, where there are many rare earth resources. 

What’s more interesting now is how Trump and his administration will respond to this public demonstration of triumph by the villains. Because in the joint communiqué, these villains declared they want to end the era of American political dominance and launch a new era with new rules of world order—rules that will be set by Russia, China, North Korea, and Iran," Rybachuk commented.
