'Most Important Task...' Russia, China to Counter 'US Containment' As Trump Threatens To Drive Wedge Russia sees efforts by it and China to counter US attempts to contain the two countries as the “most important task”, as per an ally of President Vladimir Putin. Sergei Shoigu, the secretary of Russia's Security Council, met China's foreign minister Wang Yi for security talks in Beijing on Nov. 12 and stressed the need to "counter the 'dual containment' policy directed against Russia and China by the US and its satellites." Just days before his victory in the US election, Donald Trump told Tucker Carlson in an interview that Biden had allowed Russia, China, Iran, and North Korea “to get together in a group…because of the oil.” Trump added that one of his professors at the Wharton School of Finance told him that “the one thing you never want to happen is Russia and China uniting.””I'm going to have to un-unite them, and I think I can do that too,” Trump said. Meanwhile, Iran and Russia linked their banking systems in the latest bid to counteract Western sanctions.
