Mr Mills called China one of the worst countries in the world for suspected human rights violations. While Western politicians are condemning Putin\u2019s current efforts in Ukraine, Chinese President Xi Jinping has adopted a different approach, allying with Russia and Iran rather than condemning Putin\u2019s actions and forming a superpower alliance. The politician also accused the US government of doing nothing as the three powerhouse countries banded together, calling the move a \u201cpolitical land grab.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Mills explained: \u201cI believe we must consider the fact that NATO, as it currently exists, is partially tainted and has been compromised at times.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou have China, for example, which is responsible for the majority of human rights violations, as we witnessed with the Uyghurs.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut what you\u2019re witnessing right now, and this is something I\u2019ve talked about on prior episodes, is a new linkage of a great superpower comeback that connects Russia, China, and Iran together.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe issue is that America has yet to sit down and discuss this renaissance.<\/p>\n<p>Mills, Cory (Image: Fox News)<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/23a496c2780b4b708e80b928066c01b7\"\/><\/p>\n<p>At a wreath-laying ceremony, President Vladimir Putin takes part (Image: Getty Images)<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Mills continued, \u201d \u201cSo, as Russia continues to expand its boundaries, China engages in non kinetic warfare such as economic and resource warfare.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs well as outnumbering the United States in the South China Sea in terms of naval forces.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs a result, we\u2019re seeing a geopolitical land grab by several of the world\u2019s great nations, and America, sadly, has done nothing to respond.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Western governments have previously warned Putin that if he signals his gathered forces on Ukraine\u2019s border to invade, he would face sanctions.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/02c7c03265bf4723be571d11244aecea\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Joe Biden, the President of the United States of America, said: \u201cIf Russia continues its invasion, we will be prepared to retaliate with sanctions.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWho in the Lord\u2019s name does Putin think gives him the authority to designate Donestk and Luhansk as Russian?\u201d Mr Biden asked, referring to Putin\u2019s proclamation that the Ukrainian cities of Donestk and Luhansk are now Russian \u201cCreating new \u201ccountries\u201d on land that belongs to his neighbors?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is a clear breach of international law that necessitates a strong response from the international community.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Biden went on to reaffirm Russia\u2019s sanctions, saying, \u201cThat means we\u2019ve cut Russia\u2019s government off from Western financing.\u201d It can no longer borrow money from the West, and its new debt cannot be traded on our or European markets.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/7715231988994709891d1caf8dd90600\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Troops from Russia (Photo courtesy of Getty Images)<\/p>\n<p>Foreign Secretary Liz Truss also announced that the United Kingdom would impose sanctions on Russia.<\/p>\n<p>Ms Truss explained: \u201cThe oligarchs and banks with ties to the Kremlin will be targeted in the first wave of sanctions.
