While slamming the present US President Joe Biden, Donald Trump stated Putin would never have done this to him.

As the crisis has worsened, China has been forced to strike a balance between its close ties to Russia and major economic interests in Europe, and Moscow's approach contrasts sharply with China's long-stated foreign policy position of non-interference in the internal affairs of other countries.

Former US President Donald Trump on Tuesday said that if he was still in the White House, Russian President Vladimir Putin would not have dared to invade Ukraine. He also threatened Taiwan, claiming that Chinese President Xi Jinping would act shortly.

New research has found that a total of 38 Chinese People's Liberation Army soldiers died due to drowning while crossing the fast-flowing Galwan river on the night of June 15, 2020.

Bilateral meetings between Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Xi Jinping have not taken place since the border standoff that erupted in May last year.

Before the conference, China increased its media blitz criticizing US democracy as corrupt and failing.

"Politicizing sports is against the Olympic spirit and undermines the interests of athletes from all nations," said foreign ministry spokesperson Zhao Lijian during a press conference.

Speaking to Xi on a television screen from the White House, Biden highlighted the need to resolve high-stakes disagreements, particularly those over trade and Taiwan.

Biden and Xi spoke on the phone for around 90 minutes in September. In February, the two leaders chatted for two hours, their first phone contact since Biden was sworn in as US President.
