The Other Missing Man in Anchorage

Everyone knows someone was missing at President Trump’s meeting with Russian dictator Vladimir Putin last week. Ukrainian president Vladimir Zelensky will get his chance this afternoon to address with Mr. Trump the fate of his country, accompanied by a posse of influential European allies. 

There was, however, another man absent from the Anchorage summit: China’s Communist emperor, Xi Jinping. He apparently greenlit Russia’s invasion and certainly has enabled its ongoing destruction of much of Ukraine. 

China expert Gordon Chang believes that President Trump is refraining from holding Xi accountable for his various hostile actions lest it destabilize his regime and imperil Chinese Communist Party rule. 

That is a formula for allowing the CCP to get away with still more murder – literally. The truth is that there will be no peace in Ukraine, let alone the Pacific, as long as it’s the case.
