That attests to the deep ties and the mutual respect between Moscow and Beijing, which continue to grow and strengthen despite external pressure.
The delegations will address security issues, trade cooperation, cultural exchange and further comprehensive partnership across all areas.
“Both countries conduct independent foreign policy. We work in solidarity on forming a more just and democratic multipolar world order which should rely on the central role of the United Nations and its Security Council, international law and the cultural and civilizational diversity, a verified balance of interests of all participants of the world community,” Putin said following talks with Xi in Beijing.
