Moscow: Day before Vladimir Putin’s two-day state visit to China, Russian President Vladimir Putin stated in a written interview with Xinhua that Russia and China are working towards promoting the prosperity of both nations. He added that both countries have expanded equal and mutually beneficial cooperation in economic and cultural fields. The visit of Russian President Putin to China will begin on Thursday.
In the interview, Putin emphasized that the coordination of foreign policies between the two countries is propelling the establishment of a fair multipolar world order, which underpins the future success of the Russia-China comprehensive strategic partnership of coordination for the new era.
Putin highlighted that contemporary Russia-China relations transcend ideology and are a strategic choice made independently by the two countries regardless of the political situation. This choice is grounded in the extensive common interests, deep mutual trust, strong public support, and genuine friendship between the people of the two countries.
“In a broader sense, we are working to contribute to the development and prosperity of Russia and China by enhancing equal, mutually beneficial economic and humanitarian cooperation and strengthening foreign policy coordination in the interests of building a just multipolar world order. All this is the key to the future success of our comprehensive strategic partnership of coordination for the new era,” said Putin.
He noted that the partnership between Russia and China is always based on equality and mutual trust, mutual respect for sovereignty, and consideration of each other’s interests.
President Xi Jinping, a wise and visionary leader, plays a special and prominent role in the development of bilateral relations, he added.
Putin recalled that in 2013, President Xi chose Russia as the first destination of his state visit as China’s head of state. After being re-elected as Chinese President in March last year, his first state visit was again to Russia. They spent nearly five hours together, holding one-on-one in-depth talks, followed by a day of substantive official events.
