Chinese President Xi Jinping arrived in Moscow this week for a pivotal state visit, coinciding with commemorations of the 80th anniversary of the Soviet Union's Great Patriotic War victory. The visit, hosted by Russian President Vladimir Putin, has drawn widespread attention as residents express optimism about the deepening bilateral relationship.
CGTN interviews with Muscovites revealed strong public sentiment. Irena, a local seamstress, described the visit as "a testament to our enduring friendship. China and Russia show how mutual respect can foster peace worldwide." Her sentiments echoed broader enthusiasm for cultural and economic collaboration between the two nations.
The trip underscores China's role as a stabilizing force in Eurasian geopolitics, with analysts noting potential impacts on regional security frameworks and cross-continental trade routes. Academic observers suggest the strengthened partnership could reshape energy markets and digital infrastructure development across Asia.
