European Delegates Leave Meeting Room Before Putin’s Speech

Before Russian President Putin’s speech, several delegates from European countries left the meeting room, according to Reuters.

During the One Belt One Road Forum in the People’s Republic of China, several delegates from European countries refused to listen to Russian President Vladimir Putin, demonstratively leaving the hall shortly before his speech began.

Russian mass media, of course, covering this event, did not write about this demarche of European delegates, but they mentioned how Putin thanked his “dear friend” Chinese President Xi Jinping for the invitation to attend at the opening ceremony of the forum.
