Just days after hosting President Donald Trump, Chinese leader Xi Jinping welcomed Russian President Vladimir Putin to Beijing.
On Tuesday, Putin arrived for two days of high-level talks as Russia reportedly looked to secure new energy and trade agreements with China amid ongoing Western sanctions and growing economic pressure tied to the war in Ukraine.
The visit underscored Moscow’s increasingly close partnership with Beijing, as both nations seek to expand economic cooperation and strengthen strategic ties.
The Kremlin said the leaders planned to discuss economic cooperation, as well as “key international and regional issues.”
Russian officials said there was “no connection” between the visits by Trump and Putin, adding that Tuesday’s discussions were aimed at “reassuring a long-standing strategic partner” and underscoring the importance of continued cooperation.
