Putin visits China to reaffirm Russia ties as Xi also seeks stable US relations after Trump summit
- Russian President Vladimir Putin arrived in Beijing on Tuesday for a two-day state visit to meet Chinese President Xi Jinping, aiming to strengthen their strategic partnership following U.S. President Donald Trump's recent summit there.
- Timed to mark the 25th anniversary of the 2001 Treaty of Good-Neighborliness and Friendly Cooperation, Putin's visit comes days after Trump concluded his high-profile Beijing trip, spotlighting China's diplomatic reach.

- Beijing appears determined to preserve diplomatic flexibility by engaging all major powers, balancing its "no limits" partnership with Moscow against efforts to maintain stable ties with Washington.
