[[Ray McGovern]], a former U.S. Presidential briefer, has chronicled how as “[[Biden]] took office in 2021, his advisers assured him that he could play on [[Russia]]'s fear (sic) of [[China]] – and drive a wedge between them. This represents the ‘mother of all errors’ of judgement, because it brings about the circumstances in which the [[New World Order|western ‘Order’]] may dissolve”.<ref>[https://consortiumnews.com/2024/05/17/ray-mcgovern-russia-china-two-against-one/ RAY McGOVERN: Russia & China — Two Against One], Ray McGovern, ''Consortium News]], May 17, 2024. consortiumnews.com</ref>

China is seeking to be the most powerful [[economy]] in the world and the largest and the most powerful [[military]] in the world’.”

China is seeking to be the most powerful [[economy]] in the world and the largest and the most powerful [[military]] in the world’.”
McGovern observes that this meeting gave Putin clear confirmation that Biden and his advisers were stuck in a woefully outdated appraisal of Russia-China relations.
