Russian President Vladimir Putin and Chinese President Xi Jinping took a break from meetings on Tuesday to show off their cooking skills.
While attending an economic forum in the far eastern port of Vladivostok, Russia, Putin and Xi donned blue aprons to cook up some traditional Russian pancakes, called blini. After making a short stack, the pair ate their blini topped with caviar and washed it down with shots of vodka.

While caviar is most commonly associated with Russian cuisine, China has actually become the world’s largest producer of the expensive fish eggs. Xi has forged a strong relationship with Putin since he became president of China in 2012.
In fact, Xi’s first foreign trip was to visit Russia in March of 2013. Two years later, Xi and his wife were guests of honor at the Moscow Victory Day Parade.Sources: The New York Times, AP

Alexander Gabuev, chairman of the Russia in the Asia-Pacific Program at the Carnegie Moscow Center think tank, told the Washington Post that Xi and Putin are “trying to signal” that “if the United States pushes too far, we are going to move closer to each other.” Source: Washington Post

Russia keeps silent about disaster in Crimea like USSR about Chernobyl – Washington Post
That wouldn’t be the Ukrainian owned Plant that was supplied by a ukrainian blocked water source which it need to work properly? A plant that has already had similar problems and ignored instruction to stop production?
+ I believe using fuel rods from GE (US )that are not suited for this type of nuclear station.
Disaster in Crimea 🙂
Have you been there last 3 years – have your seen the huge refurbish of infrastructure that had been totally neglected since fall of Soviet and Ukraine independence. Go have a look – but you probably not even know how to get there
Been there and done that and it was amazing if I say so myself.
Idiot!
A wonderful light-hearted display of fun, food, and fellowship.
The neocons and neoliberals hate good news about Russia, Putin, China, and Xi. These guys are undermining the fear-based agenda of the collapsing West. A very powerful antidote to raging adolescent stupidity.
The food looks good and in such good company !
We could have had an alliance with Russia. America’s neocons are our own worst enemy. Many have duel citizenship and their allegiance is with that other country on the east of the Mediterranean Sea.
Xi has called Putin his “best friend”. https://www.reuters.com/article/us-china-russia/chinas-xi-awards-best-friend-putin-friendship-medal-promises-support-idUSKCN1J41RO
They’re trying to show US politicians how humans behave.
Meanwhile …. back at the animal farm …
