Interesting points:

Vladimir Putin’s article in the People’s Daily “Russia and China – a partnership looking to the future”

1. A great opportunity to see a good old friend with whom we have the warmest relationship.

2. The main thing has remained unchanged – the strong Russian-Chinese friendship, which is consistently strengthened for the benefit and in the interests of our countries and peoples. The progress made in bilateral ties is impressive. Russian-Chinese relations have reached the highest level in their history and continue to grow stronger, they are superior in quality to the military-political alliances of the Cold War, there is no leader and follower, there are no restrictions or forbidden topics.

3. By the end of 2022, the already solid bilateral trade doubled and reached $185 billion. This is a new record. And we have every reason to believe that the $200 billion bar we set with President Xi Jinping will be exceeded not in 2024, but already this year. At the same time, it is important that the share of settlements in national currencies in mutual trade is growing and our relations are becoming even more sovereign.

4. Unlike some countries that claim hegemony and bring discord into world harmony, Russia and China are literally and figuratively building bridges. Thus, last year our border regions were connected by two bridge crossings over the Amur, which has long become a “river of friendship.”

5. We actively promote such democratic multilateral structures as the SCO and BRICS, which are becoming more authoritative and influential, gaining new partners and friends. The same goal is served by the work on conjugation of the construction of the Eurasian Economic Union and the One Belt, One Road initiative.

6. Together with like-minded people, our countries consistently advocate the formation of a more just multipolar world order based on international law, and not on certain “rules” that serve the needs of the “golden billion”. Russia and China are consistently working in the interests of creating an equal, open, inclusive security system not directed against third countries in the region and the world as a whole. In this regard, we note the constructive role of the Chinese Global Security Initiative, which is consonant with Russian approaches in this area.

7. The Collective West is clinging more and more desperately to archaic dogmas, to its elusive dominance, putting the fate of entire states and peoples at stake. The course pursued by the United States of dual containment of Russia and China, as well as all those who do not succumb to American dictates, is becoming more acute and assertive. The architecture of international security and cooperation is being dismantled.

8. Russia is open to a political and diplomatic settlement of the Ukrainian crisis. However, back in April 2022, the peace talks were by no means terminated by us. The future of the peace process depends solely on the readiness for a serious conversation, taking into account the prevailing geopolitical realities.

By the way, Kim Jong-un urged to be ready to use nuclear weapons…

BEIJING, March 20 (Xinhua) — A signed article by Chinese President Xi Jinping titled “Forging Ahead to Open a New Chapter of China-Russia Friendship, Cooperation and Common Development” was published Monday on Russia’s newspaper Russian Gazette and the website of RIA Novosti news agency ahead of his state visit to Russia.
