During Russian President Vladimir Putin’s state visit to China, the two nations agreed to deepen their comprehensive strategic partnership of coordination for a new era. Chinese President Xi Jinping emphasized that the China-Russia relationship sets a fine example for major and neighboring countries to treat each other with respect and pursue mutual benefit.
Amid global turbulence in recent years, Beijing and Moscow have provided consistent support for one another. Contrary to some Western portrayals of an “axis of dictatorships,” the two countries adhere to principles of non-alliance, non-confrontation, and not targeting any third party.
“It is of fundamental importance that relations between Russia and China are not opportunistic and are not directed against anyone. Our cooperation in world affairs today serves as one of the main stabilizing factors in the international arena,” Russian President Putin stated, as reported by TASS.
The cooperation between China and Russia advances multipolarity and economic globalization in the spirit of true multilateralism. This partnership not only serves the fundamental interests of both countries but also contributes to peace, stability, and prosperity worldwide.
During his visit to China, President Putin was accompanied by a large delegation of high-level officials in energy, economy, trade, and finance, as well as business leaders in heavy industry and mining. This reflects the two nations’ efforts to expand win-win cooperation across various sectors, rather than forging a united political front as some media suggest.
