Putin’s latest visit to China ended in a complete failure as gas pipeline talks collapsed

China has frozen negotiations with Russia over the Power of Siberia 2 pipeline. According to The Wall Street Journal, during Vladimir Putin’s most recent visit to Beijing, Chinese officials asked the Russian delegation not to raise the issue of the project again until the terms of the deal change.

The newspaper reports that Beijing is willing to sign the contract only if Russia agrees to supply gas at domestic Russian prices — a condition Moscow considers economically unacceptable.

The proposed price is around $50 per 1,000 cubic meters, far below Russia’s export rates.

The Udmurt language, part of the Finno-Ugric family, is disappearing rapidly. The number of speakers dropped from 463,000 in 2010 to 396,000 in 2021 — a loss of nearly 67,000 speakers in just one decade. What does the steep decline of languages like Udmurt reveal about the current state of indigenous language rights?#HiddenNations #Udmurt #FinnoUgric
