On September 3, I published in the Dominican Republic's newspaper: "Dominican Today," the article: —The natural gas is the new "Russian winter" as a war element... —. Its epilogue refers to China's role in World War II and the effects of silent participation that will probably have been more decisive than has been thought so far on the Asian front. The ferocity of the Russian winter was blamed on the invading Nazi forces.

The Kremlin seems to have forgotten this momentous historical fact... by supposedly — cleverly —   fixing the ancient capital of the Silk Road, Samarkand, Uzbekistan, for Russian President Vladimir Putin's meeting with Chinese Prime Minister Xi Jinping at the Shanghai Cooperation Organization Summit on September 15 this year. One could say that China's position of "neutrality" on the invasion of Ukraine was the first lost battle in this irrational bet.

On November 4, Xi Jinping also urged German Chancellor Olaf Scholz, who was visiting Beijing, to push for peace talks - saying the international community should 'create conditions for the resumption of negotiations (and) oppose the use or threat of nuclear weapons.' And Xi Jinping has directly warned Putin not to use nukes in Ukraine in China's bluntest rebuke yet to the Kremlin. (Daily News)

And today: — Mr. Xi called on Biden to "chart the right course" and "elevate the relationship" between China and the US. He said he was ready for a "candid and in-depth exchange of views" with Mr. Biden. (White House Press Release).

Also, according to the NYT, there have been meetings between the intelligence chiefs of the United States and Russia.

And finally, president Zelensky has opened talk of peace talks from the liberated city of Kherson...
