Putin visit to China will take place very soon, Kremlin says
Preparations are complete for the visit, which is expected to deepen strategic ties and trade cooperation between Moscow and Beijing, Peskov said.
- On May 20, Russian President Vladimir Putin will visit Beijing, the South China Morning Post reported, days after President Jinping concludes his summit with President Donald Trump.
- Since the war in Ukraine began, Beijing has become a key ally for Moscow, helping blunt Western economic sanctions by purchasing Russian oil and selling dual-use goods.
- Earlier in May, Putin said the two countries are "in principle" at a high level of agreement on oil and gas cooperation, adding he wants to discuss nuclear energy with Jinping.
- The one-day trip represents a routine part of the relationship with The Kremlin and Beijing, as both nations seek to challenge the US-led world order.
- This visit marks Putin's first trip abroad this year, underscoring close ties between Beijing and Moscow despite The Kremlin not yet officially announcing the date.
