The Chinese leader is stepping out onto the world stage for the first time in nearly 1,000 days. He’s seeking to project a vision of an alternate global order that can challenge the US and its allies. Instead, all eyes are on his meeting with Putin and precisely what the Russian president will ask of China.

Xi kicked off the central Asia tour today with a state visit to Kazakhstan, where he launched his signature Belt-and-Road trade-and-infrastructure plan nine years ago. Next, he goes on to a Chinese-founded security forum in Uzbekistan where Xi and Putin will meet for the first time since Russia’s February invasion of Ukraine. Both stops will reinforce Xi’s vision of a world where China can expand its interests without fearing the threat of economic or military pressure from the US. It should be a comfortable return to international diplomacy with friendly nations, no intrusive media and few awkward questions, just a month before he’s expected to consolidate power at a historic Communist Party congress. But after months of Beijing’s careful balancing act — offering support for Russia and strengthening economic ties without triggering US and European sanctions — cozy relations between Xi and Putin now risk becoming a liability for Beijing. — [Rebecca Choong Wilkins]( Xi at the Great Hall of the People in Beijing on Aug. 30.
