The international television program "The Classic Quotes by Xi Jinping" premiered across Russian media platforms on Wednesday, coinciding with Chinese President Xi Jinping's arrival in Moscow for a state visit and commemorations marking the 80th anniversary of the Soviet Union's Great Patriotic War victory.
Produced by China Media Group, the multilingual series aired through partnerships with major Russian broadcasters, including the All-Russia State Television and Radio Broadcasting Company and Rossiyskaya Gazeta. Over 200 attendees from both countries celebrated the launch at a Moscow event, emphasizing cultural connectivity.
Analysts note the timing underscores efforts to deepen Sino-Russian collaboration through shared historical narratives and media diplomacy. The program highlights President Xi's philosophies on governance and development, framed within China's global engagement strategy.
The broadcast aligns with broader diplomatic activities during Xi's visit, which includes discussions on economic partnerships and regional stability. Experts suggest such cultural initiatives strengthen cross-border understanding while reinforcing strategic ties between Beijing and Moscow.
