21 March 2023

On 20–22 March 2023 Chinese president Xi Jinping visited Russian president Vladimir Putin and presented a proposal for ending the war between Russia and Ukraine. Badiucao questions both leaders’ true commitment to peace.

JUDGE’S COMMENT
Badiucao’s cartoons are fearless and compelling, seeking to skewer the powerful at home and abroad.
