"In 1999, Biden, not without drawing, spoke about a laughing conversation with representatives of Russia, who threatened to "make friends with China" if the West continues NATO's expansion to the east," Pushkov wrote in his Telegram channel.
According to him, now the American side is not up to laughter, as Russia has managed to get closer to both China and Iran.
He noted that in the United States this is called the main challenge for themselves.
Earlier, Deputy Chairman of the Russian Security Council Dmitry Medvedev expressed confidence that Xi Jinping's visit to Moscow was brilliant and demonstrated a new level of relations between the two countries.
ABC reported that the meeting between Russian President Vladimir Putin and Xi Jinping in Moscow demonstrated the "end of the world order" based on the supremacy of Western countries.
