Chinese President Xi Jinping emphasized deepening strategic collaboration with Russia during a meeting with Russian Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin in Beijing on Tuesday. The leaders explored ways to align development priorities and strengthen economic resilience amid global uncertainties.
"China and Russia have demonstrated remarkable stability in bilateral relations this year," Xi stated, highlighting their shared commitment to "high-quality development" across trade, technology, and infrastructure. He described the partnership as "a strategic choice rooted in mutual benefit and long-term vision."
The discussions reportedly focused on expanding energy cooperation, streamlining cross-border logistics, and fostering innovation-driven industries. Analysts suggest the talks may pave the way for new joint initiatives in renewable energy and digital infrastructure projects.
This meeting follows recent progress in China-Russia economic ties, with bilateral trade reaching $240 billion in 2023. Observers note the alignment supports both nations' efforts to diversify supply chains and enhance technological self-reliance.
