THE KINGS OF THE EAST



China and Russia flex muscle at the West


Asia Times Online reports: “Beijing and Moscow will send a clear message to the world at the ongoing Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) summit. The leaderships of China and Russia have drawn two lines in the sand – an unequivocal ‘No’ to bombing Iran, and another unambiguous ‘No’ to regime change in Syria brought about through a Western bombing campaign.

Russian President Vladimir Putin arrived in Beijing to start his first overseas visit after he was elected as the Russian leader again, which highlights the importance he attaches to his country’s relations with China. And in Beijing, no less, he is scheduled to hold talks with his Iranian counterpart, Mahmud Ahmadinejad. This is indicative of the joint Russian and Chinese geopolitical strategy.

Chinese foreign ministry spokesman Liu Wenmin spelled out the shared Russian and Chinese viewpoint on the ongoing crisis in Syria…

Besides lauding Sino-Russian cooperation on the issue, Liu explicitly made clear the two nations’ consistent objection to the use of force to resolve the Syrian issue: ‘China and Russia share the same position on these points and both sides oppose external intervention into the Syrian situation and oppose regime change by force.’…” (Russia and China unite for World War III – Ezekiel 38:1, 2, 8, 16; and Daniel 11:44; Revelation 16:12 and Revelation 9:14. Iran [Persia] and Syria and numerous other Muslim nations join Russia and China – Ezekiel 38:5 – 7; Psalm 83:5 – 7.)
