United States President Donald Trump mocked the meeting between China leader Xi Jinping, Russia dictator Vladimir Putin and North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un. In a publication on the Social Truth, made while the three mandates participated in a military parade in Beijing, Trump recalled American support to China during World War II and commented on the approach between hostile regimes to Washington.
“The big question to answer is whether President XI of China will mention the huge amount of support and ‘blood’ that the United States have given China to help her guarantee her freedom of a very hostile foreign invader. Many Americans have died in search of China for victory and glory. I hope they are properly honored and remembered for their bravery and sacrifice!”
Republican mocked the Union of Xi with Putin and Kim in the parade.
“I want President XI and the wonderful people of China to have a big and lasting day of celebration. Please give my most warm greetings to Vladimir Putin and Kim Jong-un while you conspire against the United States,” said Trump. The US was allies from China in the fight against the Japanese troops that occupied its territory. During World War II, China was not yet under the leadership of the Communist Party, which would only reach power in 1949.
The Chinese military parade took place on Wednesday (3) (it was still Tuesday night in the US) in the Praça de Peace Heavenly, in Beijing, against more than 50,000 spectators and representatives from 26 countries. According to CNNXi Jinping led the 70 -minute military parade alongside Putin and Kim in an unprecedented gesture that experts point to a direct message to the White House. The military parade serves to commemorate the end of World War II in the Pacific and the Chinese victory against the invasion by Japan.
During the event, Xi praised the strength of China.
“The Chinese nation is the great nation that is never intimidated by any aggressor,” the communist leader told the public.
Among the equipment displayed in the parade were hypersonic missiles, non -manned air vehicles, terrestrial and submarines, as well as defense lasers – part of a modernized arsenal that Beijing has been developing under the leadership of XI. The new intercontinental missile DF-61, not yet presented to the public, was also featured.
According to experts heard by CNNChina sought to demonstrate in this parade not only technological advances in the military field, but also the industrial capacity of producing large -scale weapons, which in the long run can be a threat to the US.
In addition to Putin and Kim, they were also present at the Xi Military Parade of countries such as Iran, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Cambodia, Cuba, Indonesia, Malaysia, Pakistan, Serbia, Slovakia and Vietnam, as well as representatives of Kazakhstan, Tajiquistan, Turkomanistan and Uzbekistan. Brazil was represented by former President Dilma Rousseff, now president of the BRICS Development Bank, and Lula’s special advisor Celso Amorim.
The parade, according to CNNit also functioned as a showcase of the Xi project to sell to the world its popular liberation army as a “world -class force” capable of rivaling and eventually overcoming the US.
Kremlin’s advisor Yuri Ushakov, who was with Putin at the meeting with Xi in Beijing, responded directly to Trump’s irony in the social Truth.
“He [Trump] again said, not without irony, that supposedly these three [líderes] plot a conspiracy against the United States. I want to say that no one plotted any conspiracy, no one has made any plot, ”he said in an interview with the Russian public broadcaster.
Ushakov stressed that the idea of a plot against the US was not even considered at the meeting.
“To no one, to none of the three leaders, has passed my mind to do that,” he said.
According to the diplomat, Trump’s comments on social networks were seen in Moscow as sarcasm. He stressed that Kremlin is fully aware of the role that the United States and the Trump government play on the international scene.
