Joe Biden said the western alliance would target any country that violated the sanctions against Russia. Specifically, after a lengthy telephone call with Chinese Chairman Xi Jinping on March 18th: “President Biden made clear the implication and consequences of China providing material support, if China were to provide material support to Russia, as it prosecutes brutal war in Ukraine,” the senior administration official said, “not just for China’s relationship with the United States, but for the wider world.” (link)
Today, ten days later, China just called Joe Biden’s bluff.
China announces they will violate the western sanctions and continue to purchase crude oil and gas from Russia.
HONG KONG — Chinese state energy company Sinopec will continue to buy crude oil and gas from Russia, a top executive said on Monday, even as Western democracies step up sanctions in response to the country’s invasion of Ukraine.
The company, known formally as China Petroleum and Chemical, is involved in two major projects in Russia: an oil and gas production joint venture called Taihu in the Volga-Ural petroleum basin in western Russia with state-owned peer Rosneft, and the development of the Amur gas chemical complex and processing plant with Sibur in the Russian Far East, adjoining China.
Sinopec holds a 10% stake in privately owned Sibur.
During his company’s annual results call on Monday, Sinopec President Yu Baocai noted that it bought both crude and gas from Russia last year.
“We will also continue to do so in accordance to commercial principles and international trade regulations in the future with all trading partners in order to develop normal oil and gas trading cooperation,” he said.
Yu provided no figures, but said the buying is in line with the company’s strategy of “diversifying import sources.” Key considerations, he said, include supply types, price, transport costs, tariffs and supply stability.
Referring to Sinopec’s projects in Russia, Yu said that both are “operating stably in general for the time being, and there are no indications of impairment.” (read more)
As far as geopolitical chess is concerned, Chairman Xi just put Joe Biden in ‘check.’
There is no way Joe Biden is going to challenge or confront Xi Jinping directly. However, the intent of the western alliance to change the landscape of economics, trade and finance for the rest of the world is now directly being tested. We can also look at this like China testing NATO.
Your move Joe….
No one fears or respects the U.S. on the world stage now with the feckless basement dwelling buffoon bumbling, stumbling and fumbling his way into crisis after crisis. It will take a miracle from God to save this once great nation from utter destruction. The situation is untenable. Something has to give the center cannot hold.
Oh, I don’t know. I think the rest of the world, at least the countries that matter, are led by people who know full well that we are only one presidential election away from someone who comes in and declares “this crap all ends now” and proceeds to systematically sort it all out. And as far as them fearing us, well, all any president has to do is unleash the American military on them and they will quickly find out what fear feels like. Not to worry. Faith.
The American “military” is in high heels and getting gender reassignment surgery with CRT training. I’m a vet and it is disheartening.
And our top generals making calls to foreign country generals informing them what is real and what is nonsense. THAT speaks volumes about our developing opinions of what we see day-to-day.
Please don’t be disheartened; that is the game, to psyche everyone out so they just give up.
There is no way anyone could ever invade here, so they infiltrated. More gets exposed everyday and I believe we are lucky to have independent journalists like Sundance shedding light on all this garbage. Hang in there; the media shows a small percent of reality. Thank you for your service TwoGeese_Flying.
A complete joke. Embarrassing. It will make it easier if we have to fight them. I have a feeling all these thugs Biden is importing from the Third World will become his ruthless goon squads to terrorize us.
i think once the shooting starts here they will self deport or die here .
The problem is we had a POTUS that tried to do MAGA. He was thwarted everywhere. The RNC=DNC decepticons. All stabbing him in the back.
You meant say Stabbing America in the back!!
I thought that before 2020 happened. and then the Afghanistan withdrawal. And then civil servants looking square into the camera’s eye and just bald face lying. And getting away with it. Nobody asking any questions.
Your faith in the federal elections process in the Republic In Name Only called the United States is encouraging but perhaps misplaced given what happened little more than only a year ago.
The US military has been forced to take the so called Vaccine which by their own admission has 9 pages of side effects of which one of the main ones is myocarditis which mainly effects military age individuals which or under stress what would happen to our military when subjected to the stresses of war?
Clean-Up on World Stage, ASAP!!!
This “BUFFOON” is getting people killed and since his “brain” isn’t working correctly, some just might be ENTICED to use the 25th Amendment.
In “normal” times (pre Obama), the 25th would have already been loyally followed and resolved the problem. Actually, in normal times, no political party or corporation would have so treasonous as to throw an election with Dominion.
It amazed me that all the big corps were fine with burning the country down, shoving experimental shots down our throats or lose your ability to make a living, and giving millions to BLM thugs and white self-hatred training. Just imagine the push back if anyone suggested black self-hatred was required training in the workplace or our schools.
The Buffoon’s “brain” is working quite well…considering that “brain” is none other than Barack Hussein Obama and his minions
Biden is, has been, and will continue to be, a puppet for the Obama Regime Part III
Why should the USA be the cheerleader to all ‘ our Allies ‘ and expect them to goose step behind the Great Biden when they all remember Afghanistan. We abandoned not only our own, but trusting military allies in our ‘midnight check-out’ of Kabul. These economic sanctions on the Russian population will end up hurting the world.
Their goal is the total collapse of the USA. Even a blind man can see this. If there is a collapse every single gov rep responsible from top to bottom is fair game.
i have put them in that class already .
But just one more thing. Joe’s responsible in name only, well, a little more than that. We have a bonfire of porch manure in DC…they are all complete nincompoops.
Blaming FJB for the current state of affairs is like blaming the car valet for a bad meal at your favorite restaurant
Brandon is just a talking dummy that stammers, stutters, and drools.
Nah, all it will take is a SUPER MAJORITY in BOTH HOUSES of Congress and one person Donald J. Trump. Durham must do his job and arrest the “TRAITORS” in CONGRESS, first make Trump “Speaker of the House”, several “impeachments”, several bills under a MAGA Congress and, ANOTHER successful re-election campaign for boss man Trump in 2024.
Americans need to OVERWHELM the cheaters in 2022, AMERICAN PATRIOTS MUST take AMERICA BACK, PERIOD.
And how exactly will that happen with rigged Dominion machines, overseers kicked out, windows papered over, etc., etc. Unless we count the votes by hand with militia as protection our votes mean nothing. They rigged 2020 (the most dishonest election in earth’s history) big time and they will do it again and again.
And take over the GOP by using The Precinct Strategy of Dan Schultz.
You don’t have to give money – instead take over and control. Much better deal.

They are destroying the US on purpose. And someone (Rothschild Inc.) is paying all these people a lot of money to destroy their own country. The blue state gov’s were probably offered dictators for life positions.
I pray every day for the Lord to intervene and save us, but perhaps it would be better if We The People would step up and do that job. The Lord helps those who help themselves, right?
A lot of us can probably remember what our Grandma’s use to say AZPatriot, “The Lord helps those who help themselves”.
And “There is a hand on the end of your arm use it”.
We The People might start thinking about how to get busy.
We work through the hand of God. He gives us a plan, and we take care of business. The problem is we have almost no political power and few willing to lead us. This country is also hopelessly divided. We have the woke “citizens of the world” vs the people who believe in traditional values and the Ten Commandments. Just look at the moral degradation of America today vs 30 or even 20 years ago. Broken families, tent cities full of drug addicts, human waste and drug needles on our sidewalks, men chopping off their wieners and wearing dresses in our gov! You strip God out of everything and this is the hellish nightmare we get. Satan could come up from his kingdom in Hell, look around and say, “Is this my Hell or the Hell my minions created on earth? I can’t tell the difference!”
Happiness is a warm gun, bang bang, shoot shoot.
If George Washington waited for the Lord to intervene in Trenton instead of going there himself we would be living in Southern Canada right now.
Last week Biden* removed tariffs on 350 Chinese goods. Go figure.
The White House imbecile is dumbfounded that Xi is going to ignore him. Get a grip, you pathetic moron. No one respects your worthless ass.
the Kumbaya crowd manipulating the mannequin in the WH are always stunned when everybody doesn’t hold hands and sing together…. in the words of Rodney King… can’t we all just get along… ahhhh no….
This should not have been a surprise to anyone. Nonetheless, it is still a very fluid situation. An interesting article over at TNI citing a number of different China voices. Too bad the children are in charge here in the US.
https://nationalinterest.org/feature/why-china-won%E2%80%99t-break-russia-over-ukraine-201495
That’s an insult to children everywhere.
The good news is that the great globalist dreams have gone down the drain. A decoupling of trade with both China and Russia will be a slow process but the outcome will onshore manufacturing if not here but closer to home
I tend to agree. Problem is, the Globalist Fascists seem bound and determined to turn this into a fight to the death with the Russian Civilizational Fascists. Meanwhile, multinational corporations will definitely need to on-shore more manufacturing in America if they want to keep selling anything in this market. Sometimes, elaborate global theories and ideologies crash headlong into the reality of human nature and self interest as pursued by other countries and cultures who don’t buy into their delusions.
Here – USA – or it doesn’t really count.
Kings of the North join Kings of the East.
I know how this story ends.
Biden is in Terminal Check-Mate mode and EVERYBODY but him & his puppet handlers know that! The USA is viewed as an enflamed, festering boil full of pus that needs lanced!
,,,will CONTINUE to buy gas and oil.
fact
So, the basement dummy is being isolated, and no one will be hurt by sanctions but US……..
Many years ago a former CIA remote viewer gave a lecture in a tiny little bookstore, he was peddling his book about being a remote viewer. Because the group was so small we got him off on all kinds of tangents, a very interesting evening to say the least. His story was fascinating, anyway, he predicted all this stuff, he also said no one believed him. He spoke of Russia and the gas line, all of it, all before any of it had happened.
The only move Joe should be doing is moving into the old folks home, give him a rocking chair and leave him on the porch.
Especially if there’s a hard frost or a tornado coming…..
🙂
Forget the old folks home Biden needs to go to prison.
What else did he predict? How does this end?
Well duh.. wonder what democrats identify with more closely.. self important idiots or jackasses..
It’s been said many times, but this is what a fraudulent election gets you. By far the worst President in U.S. history.
Very possibly intended to be the last.
My thought exactly. This is not politics as usual. People need to wake up to that fact. IMO the stage is being set for the final takedown. Trudeau gave us a glimpse of the weapons they will use against us if we disobey.
The whole democratic party looks like a clown show. From top to bottom. Our country is now the laughing stock of the whole world.
And the GOP is any less of a clown show?
No
That’s exactly what they want. They hate this country and want to humiliate us.
At this point, the failed Ukrainian sanctions should be added to the impeachable offenses deliberately committed by the criminal Biden-Harris regime.
Has this terrible Administration finally reached over 100 articles of impeachment? Or are we finally over the mark?
China owns JoeBama. He has zero leverage. Xi knows it, Joe knows it, and we know it.
Bingo!
Xi called his bluff and Joe DGAF either way.
He just wants his 10%.
China Joe can do nothing about it, even if he was smart enough to play. Since the election was stolen I do not find myself rooting for Joe .. The whole corrupt cabal must fail.
I do believe the American people will recover and figure a way around the coming hardships, if only our corrupt politicians and their schemes can be destroyed.
Exactly 💯 💯
It’s already over Putin and the BRICS have won the economic war. The other article about the Europeans whining about paying with Rubles is a joke. That being said we are still on the verge of extremely dangerous times. Davos knows the Euro and Dollar can’t hold out much longer. Think Ponzi scheme at the end of the jig. Want proof look how the leaders of Western Civ blew thru money after the 2008 collapse like crazy. They knew it was a joke. Their goal has been to keep control when the system implodes.
And that my friends takes us to where we are now; the end of the line as they say. Putin and Xi have no doubt double crossed them. I have no problem with this; the enemy of my enemy is my friend. But these globalists are nuts. I believe they the upper crust really believes it’s their birthright to rule. This could spur some very serious escalations in the war theater.
About Western Civ let’s take a look. The globalists have known about the impending collapse. This is what is called the Great Reset. Again the plan was to reset everything except those who run the show. “You will own nothing and be happy” yada, yada. You know that Klaus doesn’t look like he has much of a sense of humor so I never thought he was joking. That is how you get there in a few years.
The final part of the plan: Davos knew as referenced by Klaus the world would become a more violent place. Again, with the sense of humor thing. Hell some Americans can be real assholes right now and that’s with full bellies. Just wait until their EBT cards jam up or a loaf of bread is $50 (same result). What to do? Especially with a heavily armed populace in the US? Oh I know let’s force everyone to take experimental gene therapy drugs. Drugs that after a year of data we now know unmistakably tarnish immune systems. If you look at the last couple months of data UK, Israel, Scotland all are heavily dosed countries yet the vax’d are being targeted by the latest variant. Omicron was different enough from the original antigen to cause the vax’d immune systems to work against them. Omicron most likely came from a lab too, Sharyl Atkisson just did a piece on it (sorry no link). Now just think what happens if another highly transmissible variant but 5x as virulent is set free?
It won’t be pretty for anyone but especially those who have gobbled up the experimental BS. This is how you keep the population controlled and scared and in their homes while you do a lot of things that is going to piss them off. As Treepers we have discussed on here how to best prepare yourselves. Food, water, and some medicine on hand ready to go. I would not wait much longer to get my hands on IVM. It is our job to live thru this and become their worst nightmare.
That was gospel.
This is a huge development. I have always believed a big part of economic populism involves the ultimate demise of the petrodollar which, while very painful in the beginning, will lead to America ‘re-nationalizing’ and climbing back into its own skin, not to mention shedding its Deep State millstone which can only survive with the limitless omerta offered by ‘exorbitant privilege’ i.e. exorbitant corruption and empire overreach.
So bring it on. America is up to the challenge of competing with its fellow nations mano e mano.
Don’t cross the river if you can’t swim the tide. Never wield a sword you can not dare to swing. This might even have been a BRICS coop, can’t blame them. The dollar is going to spiral down worthless
Uut-oh Joe. What you gonna do now big guy?
I’ll huff and puff and blow your house down.
A hungry cold populous usually rise up and destroy the government that brought the pain and kills the scum that makes it up . Coming soon here .
China says FU to Ma0-Xiden AND so does Russia, India, Saudia Arabia, NK & Iran. I’m I missing something here?NO they ALL know the wooden puppet is leading OUR country on a path of self-induced destruction and are smiling and laughing their collective arses off. Now they can just sit by and watch and NOT do anything!
NATO ran away from meager Afghanistan, ran like there is no tomorrow. It’s a meaningless alliance with a meaningless military, and everybody saw that.
It cannot and will never be able to militarily win over Russia, let alone China. Russia knows this, China knows it as well. It’s time for a change. A major change in our planet’s politics – one of fair play. And the West’s sanctions are NOTHING like fairplay. Such games always have a bitter end for those starting them. History is a cruel teacher.
The much bigger story that isn’t being talked about in the mainstream but Sundance / CTH has discussed quite a bit is when the US Dollar starts to crumble and is no longer the currency of choice. Biggest story in our lifetime by most of us reading this.
Xi to the Sniffer …. “FU” …. strongly worded letter to follow
