I'm a melon on duty at the airport.
In the early morning of May 17,
Russian President Vladimir Putin's transit arrived in Harbin.
When I arrived in Beijing before, it was 4 o'clock in the morning.
This time it's early in the morning again,
During the two-day visit to China, the itinerary is in full swing, and every second counts.
At the helm of Russia in turmoil,
Putin, more busy and stressful than we thought.
On April 26, Blinken was not gone,
Putin has already let out the wind:
"The first country I will visit in the new term is China."
This is Putin's 20th visit to China and his first foreign visit in the new term.
It coincides with the 75th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and Russia, which is of great significance.
A few details that will take you to see together.
01
Detail 1: In the early morning, the female official picked up the airport.
When Putin arrived in Beijing, it was 4 a.m.
The one who picked up the plane was State Councilor Chen Yiqin.
Putin arrived in Harbin, and it was nearly early in the morning,
The person who picked up the airport was Liang Huiling, the governor of Heilongjiang Province.
Many people wonder, why is it all early in the morning?
An important reason may be that Putin's itinerary for this visit to China is extremely full.
In just two days, it is necessary to hold high-level talks, exchange opinions, sign agreements, attend conferences, visit universities, etc., etc.
Only by flying in the early hours of the morning can the time be optimised to the maximum.
There is one more important consideration:
A heavyweight head like Putin has to carry out urban traffic control everywhere he passes.
Only by entering and exiting in the early morning can the normal travel of citizens be guaranteed to the greatest extent.
It can be seen that Putin is emotionally delicate and thoughtful.
This can also be seen from the fact that he bowed to the female official who picked up the airport.
It can be said that it is full of sincerity and respect.
In addition, Putin also brought a book as a gift.
The book is the novel "What to Do?" by the Russian writer Chernyshevsky. 》
The reason why I chose this book is because when mainland leaders visited Russia before, they said that they liked this book the most.
This time it was specially brought, on the one hand, to show intentions and respect,
More importantly, I am afraid that I want to borrow the title of the book and seek answers from China in a low-key manner.
What to do?
The current situation in Russia, everyone knows it,
The Russian-Ukrainian conflict has not ended after 2 years,
Just now, the United States has passed new aid from Ukraine!
In the face of collective pressure from NATO, Russia is locked in a bitter war.
At present, the overall goal of the Russian army is obviously to "promote peace by fighting" in order to gain more negotiating advantages.
And before the final decisive battle, Putin urgently needs to face off with China to ensure sufficient stability in the rear.
Although in the past four years, China and Russia have developed rapidly, and trade between the two countries has more than doubled from more than $110 billion to $240 billion.
But Putin understands that Russia is not China's only option.
Therefore, many areas that Russia was reluctant to open up before have now been fully opened to China-
Vladivostok has become China's domestic trade port.
Russia, which has always been wary of our entry into Central Asia, has opened its arms to China.
And what Putin has brought to China is obviously more than that.
Previously, the Sino-Russian natural gas pipeline had reached a consensus - the annual gas transmission volume will reach 50 billion cubic meters, which is almost the gas supply of the whole of Europe.
In addition, there is a "big gift" - to persuade India to use the yuan to settle oil.
If realized, the internationalization of the renminbi will advance by leaps and bounds, and at the same time, it will directly choke India's energy lifeline.
The significance is self-explanatory.

Detail 2: The highest standard of welcome ceremony.
During Putin's visit to China, the Chinese side expressed that he was "invited to visit".
This is the goodwill conveyed by China, which has given enough face.
You may not know that there are more than 20 planes coming to Putin's visit to China this time!
A number of deputy prime ministers, ministers of defense, foreign affairs, economic development, finance, ecology, industry, etc., all of Russia's deputy prime ministers, ministers, ministries of finance, and almost all of them came!
There are also the head of the Central Bank of Russia, Elvira Nabiullina, the head of the Foreign Trade Bank Andrei Kostin, the president of the oil company Igor Sechin, the chairman of the board of directors of Novatek, Leonid Michelson......
It even brought the entire "Osipov National Orchestra", which is the oldest orchestra in Russia, with a history of 105 years, and is a "national treasure" at the bottom of the box.
In other words, all that can be brought is brought!
We have to bring them all!
Last year, under the strong collective pressure of the West, Russia's GDP not only decreased, but also soared by 3.6%! Behind this, of course, is the result of "Sino-Russian cooperation".
Putin is well aware that Sino-Russian cooperation is the "ballast stone" of Russia's future, and he naturally urgently hopes that the new government can fully connect with China as soon as possible and continue to maintain a growth momentum.
China, also greeted with the "highest standard",
As soon as the special plane landed, the red carpet was immediately rolled from the cabin door to the special car.
The honor guards of the three services were immediately in place,
The state guest escort sent 21 vehicles to escort the whole process!
On May 16, in the Great Hall of the People, 21 salutes were fired.
The military band played the national anthems of Russia and China and jointly reviewed the honor guard of the Chinese People's Liberation Army.
The scene is welcome, in addition to Chinese children,
Russian children in China were also arranged,
This was very rare before.
The Chinese side played "Evening on the outskirts of Moscow" in the form of a march,
And Putin quoted the old song 75 years ago to evaluate,
"The Chinese and Russian peoples are eternal brothers."
While attending the opening ceremony of the "Sino-Russian Year of Culture",
Putin did not pause in time to leave time for translation because his speech was too long.
He jokingly apologized to the Chinese audience, saying
"I'm very sorry that I didn't give enough time to the translator for a long time, I just felt very comfortable, like I was at home, and I thought everyone could understand Russian."
In response to him, there was thunderous applause from the audience.
Chinese have always been "courteous exchanges",
Come with sincerity, naturally full of courtesy,
If you dare to have a ghost in your heart, then there is still an east wind waiting!

Detail 3: Lay a wreath at the Monument to the People's Heroes.
On the afternoon of May 16, Putin laid a wreath at the Monument to the People's Heroes in Tiananmen Square.
Monument to the Heroes of the Chinese People, completed in 1958,
Commemorating the people's heroes who sacrificed their lives for the country from 1840 to 1949.
From sorting out the couplets to turning around and leaving, it took Putin a full 25 seconds,
It was almost the longest wreath laid by a foreign head of state.
Since 1980, China has had one basic principle:
Laying wreaths at the Monument to the People's Heroes, depending on the wishes of foreign guests. Foreign guests do not mention it and will not take the initiative to arrange.
In other words, the tribute was proposed by Putin on his own initiative.
This act represents respect for China and history.
Seeing this scene, I really sighed,
Only when the country is rich can the people be strong, and only when there is strength can there be dignity.
Many people may grit their teeth and recall how much land Tsarist Russia seized from us and killed many of our compatriots in the past.
I can only say that the international situation is divided and combined, and only interests are eternal.
For China now,
It is no longer possible to keep the light and obscure. In the face of US suppression at this stage, China urgently needs to maintain its determination and cherish the rare period of strategic opportunities.
And put aside the old feud and join hands in the future,
Development conforms to the fundamental interests of all Chinese people.

Detail 4: Harbin Harbin Institute of Technology.
At 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon, Putin, who arrived late at night, visited Harbin Institute of Technology non-stop.
For the specific situation on campus, I put it in the video number (search video number: melon said), welcome everyone to watch it.
Many people ask, why Harbin Institute of Technology?
First of all, in terms of geographical location, Heilongjiang is located in an important position at the junction of China and Russia, and the status of the provincial capital Harbin is obvious. It is expected that there will be more trade exchanges between China and Russia in the future, and even education and scientific research cooperation projects, and Harbin will naturally become a place with great development potential.
Second, Harbin Institute of Technology has always had the reputation of "the first of the seven sons of national defense", and it is also one of the "five famous universities of the founding of the country", and it is the only university in the world with a nuclear strike, and it is also the first university in the world to send a satellite to the lunar orbit on campus.
Third, historical origins.
As a melon in Harbin, a little bit of popular science:
At the beginning of the establishment of Harbin Institute of Technology, the name of the school was "Harbin Sino-Russian Industrial School", and some courses were taught in Russian at that time, and the main building of Harbin Institute of Technology was also quite Russian architectural style.
Because the school has distinctive Russian characteristics, it has also been designated as one of the two universities in the country to learn from the model of foreign universities.
My personal understanding is that Putin came with such a strong lineup this time, obviously not to see how China After Putin spoke highly of Harbin Institute of Technology, it may mean that Harbin Institute of Technology will have more academic exchanges with Russian universities in the future......
I don't know if Erbin can catch this torrential traffic again?
Melon said
Finally, I would like to say a few words,
Great power game, master chess,
Pull a hair and move the whole body, ever-changing.
China and Russia are happy, and the United States has made difficulties,
China and the United States are getting closer, and it is difficult to show their eyebrows.
But in any case, the initiative in history must always be firmly in the hands of the Chinese.
Therefore, fight without fighting, alliance without aid,
It is the most realistic strategic choice at present.
Thank you for reading, welcome to forward, try to see tomorrow's world, it must be the world of red flags!
