Xi and Putin highlight their friendship and cooperation on energy and other issues in Beijing visit
Xi and Putin said their ties are at an unprecedented level as Moscow seeks stronger energy links and both sides prepare to sign about 40 documents.
- On Wednesday, Chinese President Xi Jinping welcomed Russian President Vladimir Putin to Beijing, where the leaders lauded progress in their strategic partnership amid talks on energy and global governance.
- The 'no limits' partnership has strengthened since Western sanctions hit Russia, leaving Moscow increasingly dependent on China for trade and energy revenues as the war in Ukraine strains Russia's economy.
- Moscow is pushing for progress on the Power of Siberia-2 gas pipeline, while China's commerce ministry confirmed a 200 Boeing jet purchase to stabilize economic ties with the United States.
- The leaders are expected to sign 21 agreements, including a joint statement promoting a 'multipolar world' and a 'more just and reasonable' global governance system, according to the Kremlin.
- Negotiations for the Power of Siberia-2 pipeline could take years due to unresolved pricing issues, even as Xi called for a 'comprehensive' ceasefire regarding Middle East hostilities.
