Western countries do not hold back the development of China, they need to realize it. This was stated by Russian President Vladimir Putin at an annual large press conference, whose broadcast on YouTube leads TASS.
The Russian leader reminded that today the purchasing power parity is more than the US economy. “It will take another 35th year, the 50th, and China will inevitably become the first economy of the world and for all other indicators,” he precomposes.
Commenting on the statements by a number of countries on the diplomatic boycake of the Olympic Games in Beijing, Putin said that the use of sports for solving political issues is an error.
