Beijing and Paris issue statement denouncing planned Israeli offensive against southern Gaza city following talks between Chinese President Xi Jinping and his French counterpart Emmanuel Macron.
Not a controversial stance for an European nation but the joint statement is interesting. Could this be a part of a deal for China to flip on Russia. Does China choose to stay with an ideological reactionary ally or move towards collaborations

There is no reason for China to move towards Western Europe at all. It is Western Europe that must move towards China.

Or, alternatively, this might be part of a deal for France to flip. Turkey already did the same thing, so they wouldn’t be the first in NATO.
