Amid accusations by the United States and the West that Russia is preparing to invade Ukraine, Russian President Vladimir Putin visited China yesterday and met with President Jinping.
This is the first time in the last two years that Chinese President Xi Jinping has held face-to-face talks with a foreign leader. Jinping did not leave the country after the corona began to spread in China. Similarly no foreign leader came to China.
But many foreign leaders traveled to China yesterday to attend the opening ceremony of the Winter Olympics, currently taking place in the Chinese capital, Beijing. Mint is one of them.
The two leaders met in Beijing ahead of the opening ceremony of the Olympics. The leaders discussed various issues, including the strengthening of bilateral relations, the Ukraine issue, and the Corono epidemic.
Speaking to reporters after the meeting, Putin said, “Russia and China are examples of a decent relationship. Russia’s relations with China are gradually growing in the path of friendly and strategic partnership.
I have known Jinping for a long time. We are both good friends and politicians who share many common ideas in solving world problems. We have always been in close contact. “
