The American President Joe Biden will visit Tel Aviv tomorrow, Wednesday, October 18, 2023, upon an invitation from the Prime Minister of the occupying entity, Benjamin Netanyahu. Observers consider this visit exceptional and intended to show American support for the entity and to carry a message to both Iran and Syria as well as Hezbollah that Tel Aviv enjoys Washington's support.

For its part, the Israeli Arutz Sheva website announced that the American President's visit to Tel Aviv will last 5 hours and includes a program consisting of meetings with Netanyahu, Isaac Herzog, and representatives of the families of the prisoners held by Hamas.

Biden will visit Tel Aviv and then Amman to meet with the Palestinian President...

The visit of Joe Biden to the Middle East will also include, as mentioned by White House National Security Spokesperson John Kirby, a stop in Jordan after Tel Aviv to meet with King Abdullah, Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi, and Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas to discuss ways to calm the situation in the Middle East and to bring humanitarian aid to the Gaza Strip.

The visit of the American President comes amid a regional situation characterized by widespread concern regarding the possibility of Iran and Syria engaging in the ongoing "war" in occupied Palestine to support the Palestinian resistance in its operation "Al-Aqsa Flood," which the Islamic resistance movement (Hamas) has been carrying out since October 7 and continues to this day.

These regional movements and Iranian threats of a potential expansion of the war come in response to American support for the occupying state, which directed to the Middle East the aircraft carriers "Gerald Ford" and "USS Eisenhower" along with their military naval fleet.

Meanwhile, Russian President Vladimir Putin arrived in Beijing this morning, Tuesday, where he will meet his Chinese counterpart Xi Jinping at the Putin-Xi summit, which will be held on the sidelines of the third Belt and Road Initiative forum.

It is worth noting that China and Russia are intensively working to strengthen economic and military cooperation between their countries to counter what they consider American hegemony, marking his first foreign visit after the International Criminal Court issued an arrest warrant against him regarding the Russian-Ukrainian war.

Will Russia and China have a role in what happens in the future in the Middle East, specifically in the Gaza Strip, in response to the absolute support that Biden and the American administration provide in the killing of unarmed Palestinian citizens?
