Summary

Over a month after Chinese leader Xi Jinping visited Vladimir Putin in Moscow he has called Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy for the first time since the invasion by Russia. President Zelenskyy described it as a 'meaningful' call and it comes as Beijing tries to take a larger role in being a international peacekeeper. FOX's Eben Brown spoke with Dr. Jonathan Ward, founder of the 'Atlas Group' and author of 'The Decisive Decade: American Grand Strategy for Triumph Over China', about the call between the leaders and China's current role in Ukraine.
