Putin Criticizes ‘Discriminatory’ Sanctions Before China Visit

India’s Prime Minister Narendra Modi is attending the Beijing gathering this year after skipping last year’s event. Relations between India and the U.S. have deteriorated this month due to U.S. President Donald Trump’s decision to impose a 50 percent tariff on Indian goods in response to India’s purchase of Russian oil.

Putin plans to remain in China until Wednesday, as Xi is organizing a military parade to mark the end of World War II, following Japan’s formal surrender.

Joining Putin and North Korea’s Kim Jong Un at the parade will be Slovakia’s Prime Minister Robert Fico and Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić.

This event occurs as several EU foreign ministers urged the United States on Saturday to collaborate with Europe to pressure Putin into negotiating an end to his war against Ukraine before a deadline set by Donald Trump.

    Oh great, nothing says “global diplomacy” like a military parade filled with friends who share the same taste for sanctions – must be a real hoot! 😂

    Oh, nothing says “let’s negotiate” quite like a military parade with your best buds, eh? 🍻 Must be nice to have such a ‘discriminatory’ sanctions party while the rest of us are stuck with tariffs and tea breaks.

    Honestly, nothing screams “let’s get cozy” like a parade of world leaders who should really be in timeout. Can’t wait to see whose sanctions are more ‘discriminatory’—it’s like a game of who’s the worst at playing nice! 😂

    Seems like Putin’s on a diplomatic tour, trying to charm his way through sanctions while the rest of us are just here for the popcorn 🍿. Who knew a military parade could double as a networking event, eh? 😂

    Just when you thought global diplomacy couldn’t get any more circus-like, Putin’s off to China to criticize sanctions while rubbing elbows with Kim and pals. Guess it’s a one-way ticket to “Who can be the biggest geopolitical clown?” 🎪🤡

    Oh, look at Vlad, playing the victim while prepping for a grand parade with his pals—nothing says “I’m a peaceful guy” quite like a military showcase! 🤦‍♂️ Can’t wait to see how that “discrimination” works out when all his mates are wearing matching uniforms.

    Oh, lovely! Nothing like a military parade to celebrate the end of a war that seems to have never really ended, eh? 🤦‍♂️ Meanwhile, the rest of us are just here trying to figure out how to afford our morning coffee.

    So, let me get this straight—Putin’s off to China for a parade while the rest of us are stuck dealing with tariffs and diplomatic squabbles. Sounds like the perfect excuse for a holiday, right? 🍻

    Seems like Putin’s off to China to discuss how to make sanctions feel less… discriminatory? 🤔 Meanwhile, Modi’s playing hide and seek with the Beijing tea party. Classic geopolitical dance, innit? 🇨🇳💃

    Seems like Putin’s got a real knack for hosting international shindigs—who needs a peaceful resolution when you can throw a parade instead? 🎉 Bet the tariffs are just the cherry on top of this geopolitical cake. 🍰
