**International Order at Risk: Macron's Diplomatic Failure with Xi**

As the world watches, European leaders flounder in their attempts to maintain stability and persuade China to take a stronger stand against Russia’s aggression in Ukraine.

French President Emmanuel Macron’s recent visit to China has proven fruitless, revealing a troubling disconnect between European ambitions and the realities of global geopolitics.


During his four-day trip, Macron hoped to persuade Chinese President Xi Jinping to apply pressure on Russian President Vladimir Putin regarding the ongoing conflict in Ukraine.

However, Xi offered only vague support, emphasizing a "multilateral" approach while clearly aligning with Moscow's perspective.

This lack of substantive progress highlights a critical failure of the European strategy to confront Russia—one that is centered more on hope than on tangible diplomacy.

Macron's previous efforts to foster closer ties with China have repeatedly come up short.

The French leader’s optimistic rhetoric now stands in stark contrast to the growing geopolitical tensions, as more and more observers see Xi’s reluctance to be involved in discussions surrounding a peace deal as tacit approval of Russia's military objectives.

Xi Jinping's statements during the meeting unintentionally mirrored the language used by aggressive actors like Putin, raising concerns about the emerging alignment between Beijing and Moscow.

As Putin continues to assert his military might without fear of consequences, the prospect of peace fades further.

If anything, Macron’s failed overtures to Xi only deepen the ramifications of a disintegrating international order, one that the likes of Trump warned about during his administration.

Under Trump's leadership, the United States adopted a strong stance on international matters, effectively using American influence to counter Russia and forge closer alliances in places like Eastern Europe.

In stark contrast, the current European approach appears overly dependent on negotiations and philosophical appeals, rather than leveraging economic power and strategic relationships to create pressure on hostile regimes.

Commentary from analysts indicates that the international community's failure to contain Russian aggression could lead to an era where nations feel incentivized to pursue their interests without regard for established norms and alliances.

The reality is clear: America, under the leadership of Trump, would have capitalized on this opportunity. He expertly navigated international tensions and gathered allies to stand firm against threats to global stability.

While Macron takes selfies and signs agreements on less-critical matters, the substantive issues that underpin global security remain unresolved.

For conservatives concerned with national and international stability, this situation serves as a potent reminder of the dangers of weak leadership.

As the circumstances unfold, the call for robust American leadership on the global stage only becomes louder.

America must reclaim its role as a decisive force against tyrannies, ensuring not just its own security, but the security of its allies worldwide.

The stakes have never been higher, and the cost of complacency could be the very foundation of the international order itself.
