Moscow, May 7 (Xinhua) — Chinese President Xi Jinping on Wednesday called on China and Russia to jointly resist any attempts to undermine the friendship and mutual trust between the two sides.
The Chinese leader made the call in an opinion piece published Wednesday by Rossiyskaya Gazeta ahead of his arrival in Russia on a state visit and participation in celebrations marking the 80th anniversary of the Soviet Union’s victory in the Great Patriotic War.
China and Russia are significant powers that wield significant influence in the world and make constructive contributions to maintaining global strategic stability and improving global governance, the article says.
Chinese-Russian relations, he said, have a clear historical logic, a powerful internal driver and a deep cultural foundation.
Bilateral relations are not directed against third parties and are not subject to their influence, the article says.
Xi Jinping also noted that the parties should, without being distracted by momentary issues and opportunistic situations, jointly promote a multipolar world and build a community with a common future for mankind, relying on the certainty and sustainability of Chinese-Russian strategic interaction. –0–
