“The world will pay attention to the meeting between the top leaders of the two countries to see how China-Russia relations can be promoted to a new height, as strategic ties between the two major powers will greatly affect the international arena.”

“Both trade and Russia are non-negotiable for China. Macron could not achieve anything [on those fronts]. Macron shares one vision in common with Xi, which is that the US hegemony - including the quest for Europe's allegiance to the US's foreign policy - must yield to a multipolar global order by accommodating the rising powers' interests and concerns. Macron's recent visits to India and Brazil also prove that France wants to stay at the forefront of that global shift.”

“Xi's trip to Russia is mainly about maintaining closer Sino-Russian relations in the post-pandemic era when both powers are experiencing hard times. It is fair to expect China and Russia will have a tighter bonding economically and diplomatically.”

“One of the assessments is that Putin acted very impulsively because of his imperial ambitions, and he has his own worldview. Xi, I think, he's much more pragmatic. He's very cautious. I don't think he's hot-headed enough and he's not a risk taker, and an invasion against Taiwan is one of the biggest acts that he would do. It's a very high-wire act and the chances of success are not clear.”

“Isolation from the West is not something (Beijing) wants to risk. President Xi and his colleagues have begun to realise that cooperation with Russia comes with substantial limits to avoid undermining China's own political priorities and longer-term economic interests.”

“By now it should be clear to the Chinese leadership that it is unrealistic to hope to eliminate COVID-19 entirely through lockdowns and repeated testing, given the Omicron variant's high transmissibility and the large number of asymptomatic cases. The recent protests themselves have not dented Xi's political authority, but unless it adapts, the government may encounter a growing political backlash against its COVID-19 policy.”

“A leader more open to influence or subject to greater checks would not likely have implemented such a draconian policy [spring 2022 lockdown in Shanghai], or at least would have corrected course once its costs and unpopularity became evident. But for Xi, backtracking would have been an unthinkable admission of error.”

“Often, the heads of different departments and companies attend one meeting in the morning about enhancing dynamic zero, and then in the afternoon a meeting about economic growth. The tensions are within Xi's own model for governing the country. The tensions really arise from him.”

“Many of the analysts felt that President Putin would not launch anything during the Olympics to upstage his friend, President Xi of China. But if you end up with a lot of extra Russian forces on the border with Belarus.… Well, ask any Georgian whether they remember what happened in Georgia in 2008. Russian troops participated in exercises in the North Caucasus that year and many of those troops did not go home after the exercise and were among those who invaded Georgia. And there was Olympics in China back then, as well. There's a lot of parallels here that make you wonder.”

“Both Biden and Xi are worried by the risk of a military incident escalating. Biden knows that the tools for prevention and crisis management are rusty, so we should expect him to push to put in place safeguards or 'guardrails' to reduce risk. The Sept. 9 call between the presidents began with Xi listing complaints, but ended with a constructive agreement for officials to continue discussions. This suggests that the personal relationship Biden built with Xi a decade ago is still strong, and that each conversation can add some stability to the mix.”

“Making the plan public at this time suggests that Biden wants to test Xi's reaction. However, judging by the very strong response from China with regard to a planned Taiwan office in Lithuania, Beijing is unlikely to just let a name change happen without protest. A name change would likely result in a suspension of US-China cooperation and might also lead to skirmishes in the East China Sea and Taiwan Strait, which would be intended to test Washington's resolve to help Taiwan in the event of a conflict with China.”

“The full text of Xi's speech doesn't appear to have been widely shared. But I've seen some pretty fulsome readings of it, which I think is about the best we'll get. It's worked its way up through the party structure. The words come out of [Xi's] mouth in a study session. It obviously has his imprimatur and that of the standing committee of the Politburo. This is a recalibration. The Party, whether we accept it or not, is a thinking machine capable of recalibration.”
