in the spring, which observers have noted would roughly correspond to the first anniversary of the Feb. 24 full-scale invasion. Of course, Xi’s visit could be perceived as “tradition,” says Wang, given he had visited in March 2013, immediately after he first took office. At that time, Xi also gave aat Moscow State Institute of International Relations on “a community with a shared future for mankind,” which later formed the bedrock of his foreign relations philosophy.
In fact, China’s perception of the war in Ukraine has deteriorated, both among its masses and elites, as it has become clear that what Putin initially deemed a “special operation” toeastern Ukraine is now undeniably a full-scale invasion. The challenge for Blinken in Beijing will be to make Xi reevaluate China’s support of Russia. “Putin said that the operation was to counter NATO expansion and a unipolar world,” says Wang.
