Part 10/14:
O'Reilly suggests that Putin remains a wild card. China’s hesitation to fully sever ties with Moscow stems from fears of destabilizing their neighbor, especially given Russia’s nuclear arsenal and unpredictable leadership. Despite Russia’s inability to even defeat Ukraine decisively, China’s support continues, albeit selectively.
Optimism Amid Uncertainty
Despite the complexity and unpredictability of the negotiations, O'Reilly expresses cautious optimism. Dr. Yanson foresees a "relatively positive outcome" from the Trump-Xi summit, although the specific details remain to be seen. The willingness of both sides to find common ground could lead to breakthroughs that serve American interests and global peace.
