Moscow, May 11 (Xinhua) — The comprehensive partnership and strategic interaction between China and Russia can serve as an example of modern equal relations between the two countries, Russian President Vladimir Putin said Sunday while speaking to reporters in the Kremlin following talks with foreign leaders who attended celebrations to mark the 80th anniversary of Victory in the Great Patriotic War.
“Our comprehensive partnership and strategic interaction with the People’s Republic of China can serve as a true example of modern equal relations in the 21st century. PRC President Xi Jinping was the main guest at the ceremonial events dedicated to the 80th anniversary of the Great Victory,” he said.
The Russian President called the negotiations with Chinese President Xi Jinping, who was in Moscow on a state visit, “exceptionally fruitful.”
V. Putin also confirmed that in September he will pay a return official visit to China and take part in celebrations dedicated to the 80th anniversary of the Victory over militaristic Japan.
“It is deeply symbolic and logical that the main and, in essence, the most important commemorative events associated with the 80th anniversary of the end of World War II in Europe and Asia will take place in Moscow and Beijing – in the capitals of states whose peoples went through the most difficult trials and paid the highest price in the name of the common Victory,” the leader of the Russian state emphasized. –0–
