This is CBS I On The World.

Here's John Bachelorette.

Meeting in Moscow between the General Secretary of the Chinese Communist Party, Xi Jinping,

and the President of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin.

The measure of this meeting turned on woodshina provide lethal aid.

That's the word that's used advisedly by the State Department.

Woodshina provide lethal aid to Russia in its flailing efforts to overcome the Ukrainian defenses.

I'm joined by Colonel Jeff McCawson, the United States Army retired, CBS News, Dickinson College visiting professor,

as well as the Diamond Six leadership and strategy CEO.

Jeff, a very good evening to you.

It is good news to hear not lethal aid.

That is a headline out of France.

I was on France.

I celebrate that.

Lithuania turns this into another kind of war.

The US would have to, in some fashion, ratchet up its opinion of China as a threat.

I want to explore your thoughts about this meeting in Moscow.

But first I want to pull upon your memories of 20 years ago on the 20th of March,

which is now understood as the war start for the US action, US and allies action in Iraq.

What are your memories of that date, Jeff, before we come to modern war fighting? Good evening to you.

Well, good evening, John.

My memories of that are quite vivid.
