The Chinese and Russian leaders are holding talks in Beijing, soon after Trump’s visit
Xi warned against the risk of a regression to “jungle law” in global affairs, stressing the need to push for “back-to-back” strategic coordination with Russia.
The two countries renewed their friendship treaty.
Putin described Russia-China ties as being at an “unprecedented level”.
“Our cooperation in foreign policy is one of the main stabilising factors on the international stage. A complex process of forming a polycentric world based on a balance of interests of all its participants is under way,” Putin said, according to a readout from the Kremlin.
